The Remington Core-Lokt Tipped 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition delivers enhanced ballistic performance through polymer tip technology that improves expansion and accuracy. This 129-grain load combines the proven Core-Lokt bonded bullet design with a precision-engineered tip for superior terminal performance on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
The polymer tip initiates rapid expansion upon impact while maintaining the Core-Lokt's signature weight retention characteristics. Unlike standard soft-point bullets, the aerodynamic tip reduces drag and flattens trajectory, extending effective range by 50-75 yards compared to traditional Core-Lokt loads. The bonded core construction prevents jacket separation even through heavy bone and muscle.
Key Features
- 129-grain bonded Core-Lokt Tipped bullet for controlled expansion
- Polymer tip design improves ballistic coefficient and accuracy
- Bonded core technology ensures 85%+ weight retention
- Optimized powder charge for 6.5 Creedmoor chamber pressures
- Brass cases suitable for reloading applications
- Consistent velocities within 25 fps standard deviation
- 20 rounds per box packaging for range sessions
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1.5-2 MOA accuracy from quality bolt-action rifles at 100 yards. The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge excels in long-range hunting scenarios where wind drift and drop matter most. This load maintains supersonic velocity past 800 yards while delivering sufficient energy for ethical harvests on deer, antelope, and similar-sized game. The bonded bullet construction handles high-velocity impacts without fragmentation.
