This bullet exceeds the famous 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser load that is famous for taking Nordic moose.  For anyone looking to use their 6.5 PRC for close in work, especially on larger animals, this round should be considered.  Modest velocity coupled with very high sectional density will help this bullet penetrate extremely well.  The round nose transmists a lot of energy to the animal on impact.  

This load is intended for short to mid range hunting of large animals where penetration is important.

We measure each powder charge to within +/- .02 grains on our Autotrickler powder systems.  We seat each bullet with Redding competition seat dies on our Forster Co-Ax single stage press.   We load them one at a time!  Each round is hand measured for consistency and placed into our hard plastic, twenty count boxes.  Each box has a foam insert and neoprene strap to keep your rounds secure in the field.  This is loaded ammunition.
