The Sellier & Bellot SB65A delivers consistent precision for 6.5 Creedmoor shooters demanding reliable performance at extended ranges. This 140-grain full metal jacket boat tail ammunition provides the ballistic coefficient and terminal consistency that competitive shooters and hunters rely on for accurate shot placement.
What Makes This Different
Sellier & Bellot's century-plus manufacturing experience shows in their precise powder charges and quality control standards. The full metal jacket boat tail design reduces drag coefficient compared to flat-base bullets, maintaining velocity and energy downrange. Each cartridge undergoes multi-stage inspection to ensure consistent chamber pressure and muzzle velocity across the entire production lot.
Key Features
- 140-grain full metal jacket boat tail bullets for superior ballistic coefficient
- Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading applications
- Consistent powder charges maintaining ±15 fps velocity deviation
- Non-corrosive primers and propellants for barrel longevity
- Factory-sealed packaging protects against moisture and contamination
- Compatible with all SAAMI-spec 6.5 Creedmoor chamber dimensions

The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge excels in precision rifle competitions where consistent trajectories matter at 600-1000 yard distances. The 140-grain weight provides optimal sectional density for the caliber while maintaining manageable recoil in lightweight rifle platforms. This ammunition functions reliably in both bolt-action precision rifles and semi-automatic platforms chambered for 6.5 Creedmoor.
