Atlanta Arms has a rich tradition of providing high-quality ammunition to groups like the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit and other professional shooters. Recently, the company has been adding to its ammunition lineup, now offering 6.5 Creedmoor. The 6.5 Creedmoor round has soared in popularity with shooters―many see advantages with it over preceding round .308 Winchester.

A light and sleek projectile, the 6.5 Creedmoor delivers a high ballistic coefficient with low drag on the round. This 6.5 Creedmoor round combines the 6.5 mm HPBT (Hollow Point Boat Tail) 140-grain Sierra MatchKing bullet with Atlanta Arms brass casing. The result is a round that averages 2700 fps and is extremely accurate.

Atlanta Arms 6.5 Creedmoor is available in 20-round boxes for $25, cases for $500.
