Nosler RDF Match 6.5 Creedmoor .264 140gr HPBT bullets are engineered for shooters chasing precision at distance. These hollow point boat tail rifle bullets come from Nosler's Reduced Drag Factor (RDF) line, a purpose-built platform for competitors and long-range hunters who need every advantage in trajectory stability and wind resistance. Whether you're loading ammo for a precision rifle match, extreme-range hunting, or a dedicated handload regimen, the RDF's ballistic profile delivers the consistency and performance that serious reloaders expect.
The design centers on two core innovations: a meticulously optimized compound ogive that remains insensitive to seating depth variation, and an extended boat tail that aggressively reduces aerodynamic drag. This combination yields the high ballistic coefficients that flatten your trajectory and cut wind drift—measurable gains that compound at distance. The hollow point features an exceptionally small and consistent meplat (tip), meaning you spend less time prepping bullets before loading and more time at the range.
Each box contains 500 rounds of .264 diameter, 140-grain bullets in the HPBT (hollow point boat tail) configuration. Nosler's manufacturing tolerances keep meplat uniformity tight, so your handloads will perform predictably shot to shot. For reloaders who demand consistency and shooters who won't compromise on external ballistics, the RDF Match line remains a go-to choice in the 6.5 Creedmoor category.
