Nosler Match Grade 6.5 Creedmoor 140 Grain RDF HPBT Ammo - 20 Rounds

Nosler Match Grade 6.5 Creedmoor 140 Grain RDF HPBT ammo is engineered for shooters who demand consistency downrange. The 140-grain RDF (Reduced Drag Factor) bullet is built on Nosler's reputation for precision, combining a small meplat and high ballistic coefficient to deliver flat, predictable trajectories even at extended ranges. Whether you're dialing in at a competition or pushing distance on the range, this ammunition pairs the proven RDF bullet design with Nosler's Match Grade loading standards—careful powder charges and premium Nosler brass—to give you round-to-round uniformity you can trust.

Each box contains 20 rounds loaded to 2650 fps muzzle velocity, striking with 2,184 foot-pounds of energy. The hollow-point boat-tail design is optimized for long-range ballistics and precision shooting, not hunting application. If you're serious about competition or distance shooting and want factory-loaded ammo that mirrors handload quality, this is what precision looks like in a box.

The small meplat on the RDF bullet reduces drag without sacrificing stability, which translates to tighter vertical dispersion and easier wind reading at distance. Loaded in consistent brass with matched powder charges, Match Grade ammo removes variables so you can focus on shot placement and technique.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is RDF ammunition and why does it matter for long-range shooting?

RDF stands for Reduced Drag Factor—Nosler's design that lowers air resistance and improves ballistic coefficient. The small meplat (bullet tip) reduces wind drift and provides a more consistent, predictable trajectory at distance, which is critical for precision and competition shooting where every tenth of an inch counts.

Is this ammo suitable for hunting?

No. The hollow-point boat-tail design is optimized for target and competition shooting, not hunting. If you're looking for hunting ammunition in 6.5 Creedmoor, Nosler offers other loads designed for that purpose.

What makes Match Grade ammo different from standard ammunition?

Match Grade ammo is loaded to tighter tolerances with matched powder charges and premium brass to ensure consistency from round to round. This reduces shot-to-shot variation, giving you tighter groups and more predictable performance—especially important in competition where small differences compound over distance.

What is the ballistic coefficient on the 140-grain RDF bullet?

The supplier information provided does not include the specific ballistic coefficient value. Contact Nosler directly or check their ballistics database for the exact BC figure if you're building ballistic solution tables or comparing to other loads.
