The Federal Premium 6.5 Creedmoor 120 Grain Trophy Copper ammunition combines proven lead-free performance with a design built for consistent hits on mid-range game. This 20-round box pairs Federal's reputation for reliable centerfire rifle ammo with a copper-alloy bullet that's engineered to deliver deep penetration and controlled expansion across typical hunting distances. If you're running 6.5 Creedmoor and need a non-toxic round that won't compromise on accuracy or downrange energy, this load deserves consideration for your next hunt or range session.
The Trophy Copper bullet features a polymer tip and boat-tail profile that work together to flatten the trajectory and maintain velocity downrange, reducing the holdover adjustments you'd need at distance. The copper-alloy construction is designed to retain up to 99 percent of bullet weight through the expansion process, supporting deeper penetration through muscle and bone. The grooved bullet shank contributes to consistent accuracy across different rifles, and the optimized hollow cavity expands reliably even when velocity varies shot to shot—a practical advantage when hunting at different ranges or elevations.
This is a lead-free load, making it compliant in areas with ammunition restrictions. Federal Premium backs these rounds with quality control and consistent chamber pressure, so you can reload data with confidence and expect reliable function in your bolt-action, semi-auto, or lever-gun platform. At 120 grains, this bullet weight is well-suited to the 6.5 Creedmoor's ballistic sweet spot, balancing recoil manageability with sufficient downrange kinetic energy for ethical shot placement on deer, elk, and similar game.
