Description
This 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge showcases the performance of Hornady’s SST projectile. The SST is designed to inflict devastating shock at the moment of impact, and it follows up on that with truly lethal terminal performance. This 129 grain bullet’s polymer tip wedges into its core to cause fast yet consistent expansion, and its mid-body cannelure and InterLock ring mechanically bind its core and jacket together so that they can hold onto the weight requisite for the creation of a deep wound channel.
rThe SST has the accuracy it needs to reliably deliver such devastating terminal effect as well. Its secant ogive profile reduces the drag it encounters in flight, and its boat tail lessens how much turbulence it leaves in its wake. Also, because this is a Superformance round, its bullet is able to fly out of the muzzle up to 200 fps faster than what you’re accustomed to seeing your rifle deliver. The net result is a very flat trajectory that’ll give you an easier time of things while you’re hunting for far-off deer.
rThis cartridge additionally provides a factory fresh brass casing, propellant that will leave your rifle cleaner in between cleanings, and a reliable Hornady primer.
