The SAKO PowerHead Blade 6.5 PRC 120-grain ammunition delivers exceptional terminal performance for medium to large game hunting. This premium hunting cartridge combines SAKO's precision manufacturing with an advanced polymer-tipped bullet design that maximizes energy transfer and creates devastating wound channels.
What Makes This Different
The PowerHead Blade features a unique polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity through tough hide and bone. Unlike standard hunting bullets that may fragment or fail to expand consistently, the PowerHead Blade's controlled expansion design ensures reliable performance across a wide range of velocities. The 120-grain weight provides an optimal balance of speed and retained energy for the 6.5 PRC cartridge.
Key Features
- 120-grain polymer-tipped bullet for controlled expansion and deep penetration
- 6.5 PRC cartridge delivers flat trajectory and high retained energy
- Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness for reliable extraction
- Temperature-stable powder charge maintains velocity in extreme conditions
- Boat-tail bullet design reduces drag for improved long-range accuracy
- 20 rounds per box provides sufficient ammunition for hunting trips
- Quality control tested for consistent muzzle velocity and pressure
Field performance data shows the PowerHead Blade maintains over 1,800 ft-lbs of energy at 300 yards, making it effective for elk, deer, and similar game at extended ranges. The 6.5 PRC cartridge's inherently accurate design pairs well with precision rifles for long-range hunting applications. Weather-resistant primer sealing prevents moisture contamination during extended field use.
