For hunters running the 6.5 PRC at extended yardage, Nosler Trophy Grade 6.5 PRC ammunition in 142 grains gives you a bonded-core bullet engineered to bridge the gap between flat trajectory and terminal retention. The AccuBond Long Range projectile exits at 2900 feet per second, delivering 2651 foot-pounds at the muzzle and carrying a 0.625 G1 ballistic coefficient that flattens wind deflection beyond 400 yards. Each round starts with hand-inspected Nosler brass, weight-sorted powder charges, and flash holes verified for alignment — production-run precision you can stake on a single-shot elk opportunity.

Built for the Box

Nosler bonds the lead-alloy core to a tapered copper jacket under proprietary pressure and heat, eliminating voids that cause erratic expansion. The white polymer tip initiates upset on impact while the bonded construction holds the bullet together through heavy bone and muscle, retaining 60 to 70 percent of original mass. The boat-tail base and long tangent ogive keep the bullet stable in standard SAAMI-spec throats — you will not need custom seating depths to print sub-MOA groups. Every case is trimmed to length, necks chamfered and trued, then visually inspected before boxing.

The Numbers

The 0.625 G1 coefficient positions this load above most cup-and-core hunting bullets in the same weight class, holding velocity past transonic transition and reducing holdover at 600-plus yards. Brass cases ship ready for the reloading bench — flash holes de-burred, pockets uniform, necks annealed for consistent tension across multiple firings.
