The Nosler Trophy Grade Long Range 6.5 PRC ammunition delivers exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for extended-range hunting applications. This premium factory load combines Nosler's proven AccuBond Long Range bullet technology with match-grade components for consistent shot placement at distances exceeding 500 yards. Each cartridge undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure sub-MOA accuracy potential in quality rifle systems.
What Makes This Different
The AccuBond Long Range bullet features a polymer tip and boat-tail design that maintains velocity and energy retention superior to conventional hunting bullets. While standard hunting ammunition typically loses effectiveness beyond 400 yards, this load maintains expansion velocities down to 1300 fps. The bonded core construction prevents jacket separation on impact, ensuring 60-70% weight retention for deep penetration on large game.
Key Features
- 142-grain AccuBond Long Range spitzer bullet with polymer tip
- Bonded core technology prevents jacket separation
- Boat-tail design reduces drag for flatter trajectory
- Match-grade brass cases with consistent wall thickness
- Premium powder charge for velocity consistency
- Ballistic coefficient of 0.719 for superior downrange performance
- Expansion effective down to 1300 fps impact velocity
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1-inch groups at 100 yards from quality bolt-action rifles with proper optics. The high ballistic coefficient maintains supersonic velocity past 1000 yards in standard atmospheric conditions. This ammunition excels in precision rifle competitions, long-range hunting scenarios, and tactical applications requiring first-shot accuracy. The bonded bullet construction handles bone impact without fragmenting, making it suitable for elk, deer, and similar-sized game at extended distances.
