Berger Elite Hunter Rifle Ammunition 6.5 Prc 140Gr Hpbt 3109 Fps 20/Ct

The Berger Elite Hunter 6.5 PRC 140-grain ammunition is factory-loaded precision rifle ammo designed for hunters pursuing mid-sized game with modern PRC-chambered rifles. Built around Berger's respected 140-grain Elite Hunter bullet—a round long favored by handloaders for its balance of velocity and terminal performance—this factory ammunition lets you shoot the same proven projectile without the bench time. At 3,109 fps, the 6.5 PRC cartridge delivers the speed and ballistic efficiency that makes this caliber popular for extended-range hunting scenarios.

What makes the Elite Hunter bullet effective in the field is its hybrid ogive design and high ballistic coefficient, which resist wind deflection and maintain energy downrange. The J4 hunting jacket is engineered to expand reliably across the velocity ranges typical of mid-range hunting shots. Whether you're working from a stand or glassing open country, this ammunition gives you the external ballistics and terminal characteristics Berger bullets are known for—without the reloading press.

Each box contains 20 rounds, making it convenient for practice, load development, or hunting trips. If you already shoot 6.5 PRC and trust Berger bullets, this factory option simplifies your ammunition supply while maintaining the performance standard you expect.
