Berger Target Rigfle Ammunition 6.5 Creedmoor 144 gr LRHT 2830 fps 20/ct
Berger Target Rifle Ammunition in 6.5 Creedmoor is built for serious long-range precision shooting. This match-grade ammunition pairs a 144-grain Long Range Hybrid Target bullet with a muzzle velocity of 2830 fps, delivering the consistency and accuracy you need for target work extending well past 1,000 yards. Whether you're dialing in at the range, competing, or pushing your 6.5 Creedmoor's effective distance, this round is engineered to shoot like hand-loaded ammo without the prep work.
The 6.5 Creedmoor itself is a proven platform for long-range shooting—it balances velocity and bullet weight while staying magazine-length compliant in most modern rifles, and the cartridge generates mild recoil compared to heavier magnum rounds. Berger loads this ammunition with premium cases, temperature-stable powder, and match-grade primers to maximize shot-to-shot consistency. The 144-grain LRHT bullet is designed to perform at extended range, and the overall cartridge length (COAL) is 2.825 inches, which works in standard long-action magazines.
Each box contains 20 rounds. If you're building a precision 6.5 Creedmoor load for target competition or long-range hunting prep, this ammunition removes variables and lets you focus on fundamentals and wind calls.
