6.5 Creedmoor – 142 grain AccuBond Long Range – Winchester (S65LR) – 200 Rounds

Long range hunters want a bullet that flies like a match bullet but still expands and holds together on game. This listing is Winchester Expedition Big Game Long Range 6.5 Creedmoor 142 grain Nosler AccuBond Long Range ammo, MPN S65LR, sold as a 200 round case. It suits hunters who take deliberate shots on deer, sheep, and similar game in open country. It is a strong option for hunters who have practiced at distance and want one premium load for the season.

Winchester rates S65LR at 2,700 fps with 2,298 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The AccuBond Long Range is a Nosler bonded-core bullet with a polymer tip and a streamlined, high ballistic coefficient profile. Bonding the core to the jacket helps the bullet retain weight and penetrate, while the tip and thin jacket at the nose support expansion at the lower impact speeds seen at distance. It is a premium hunting load, not a target load.

It fits rifles chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, including the Tikka T3x, Browning X-Bolt, Bergara B-14 Ridge and Wilderness, Savage 110 and Impulse, Ruger American and Hawkeye, Christensen Ridgeline, Weatherby Vanguard, and Howa 1500. A common question is whether 6.5 Creedmoor is enough for elk. Many hunters take elk with it using heavy, bonded bullets like this one at moderate ranges, but shot placement and range discipline matter. Another common question is how far this load expands reliably. That depends on impact speed, so check the bullet maker’s minimum velocity guidance and your ballistic data.

Winchester S65LR is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Cases are reloadable brass with boxer primers, and the load is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 20 rounds, 200 total, from one lot. That lets you confirm long range dope at the range and take identical ammunition into the field season after season. Store unopened boxes cool and dry between hunts.
