6.5 PRC – 140 Gr BTHP – Winchester Match (S65PM) – 200 Rounds

Want factory 6.5 PRC ammo that can hold its own at long range competitions? Pick up this 200 round case of Winchester Match S65PM 6.5 PRC 140 grain Sierra MatchKing BTHP ammo.

The heart of this load is the 140 grain Sierra MatchKing boat tail hollow point. MatchKing bullets have won more benchmark rest and long range matches than almost any other projectile. The boat tail base reduces drag, and the small hollow point meplat is a byproduct of a manufacturing process that keeps each bullet’s weight and shape extremely consistent. Winchester pairs that bullet with carefully selected powder and brass that is held to tight tolerances. Winchester rates this load at 3,030 fps and 2,854 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That speed and the bullet’s high ballistic coefficient keep wind drift low and let the round stay supersonic well past 1,000 yards. The MatchKing is a target bullet, so this load is built for paper, steel, and competition, not hunting.

The 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) was introduced by Hornady in 2018. It pushes long, high-BC 6.5mm bullets about 200 fps faster than the 6.5 Creedmoor from a short-action magnum case, with recoil most shooters find very manageable. It is chambered in rifles like the Bergara B-14, Ruger American and Hawkeye, Savage 110, Browning X-Bolt, Christensen Arms Ridgeline, and Seekins Havak. Precision rifle shooters like it because it offers magnum-level performance without the barrel wear and heavy recoil of larger 7mm and 300 magnums. Buying a full 200 round case from one lot helps keep your data consistent. That means the same velocity and point of impact from your first zero confirmation to your last stage of the season. Consistent lot data is one of the easiest ways to shrink your groups at distance.

This American-made Winchester ammo is new production, brass-cased, Boxer-primed, and non-corrosive. The premium brass is excellent for reloading, which many 6.5 PRC shooters do once they have fire-formed cases to their chamber. Each box holds 20 rounds, and ten boxes make up this 200 round case.
