Federal Premium Gold Medal 6.5 Creedmoor 140 grain ammunition is built for shooters who demand consistency at distance. The 6.5 Creedmoor has become the go-to cartridge for precision rifle competitors and long-range hunters alike, and Federal's Gold Medal line gives you the ammo that's won more matches than any other factory load. Each round pairs Federal's match-grade primer design with the legendary Sierra MatchKing bullet—a boat-tail hollow point engineered for exceptional ballistic stability and tight shot grouping downrange.
What sets Gold Medal apart is obsessive attention to detail. Federal's exclusive primer design delivers the sensitivity and velocity consistency that competitive shooters and serious hunters depend on when the target matters. The Sierra MatchKing's design has dominated precision shooting disciplines for decades because it works: the boat-tail configuration and hollow point construction produce predictable flight characteristics and reliable performance at extended ranges. With a ballistic coefficient of 0.535, these 140-grain projectiles hold velocity and energy better than lighter alternatives in the 6.5 Creedmoor lineup.
Whether you're working up loads for a PRS match, preparing for a long-range hunt, or zeroing a new rifle, Federal Premium Gold Medal gives you ammunition you can trust to perform the same way, shot after shot. This is precision ammunition for precision shooters.
| Caliber | 6.5 Creedmoor |
| Bullet Weight | 140 grains |
| Bullet Type | Sierra MatchKing boat-tail hollow point (BTHP) |
| Muzzle Velocity | 2675 fps |
| Ballistic Coefficient | 0.535 |
| Brand | Federal Premium Gold Medal |
This is 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition, so it's compatible with any rifle chambered in that caliber. The 6.5 Creedmoor is widely available in modern bolt-action hunting rifles, AR-platform rifles, and competition platforms.
Yes. The 140-grain Sierra MatchKing's boat-tail design and 0.535 ballistic coefficient make it effective at distance. Federal Gold Medal ammunition is trusted by both competitive shooters and hunters who need consistent, precise performance.
Ballistic coefficient (BC) measures how well a bullet resists wind drift and maintains velocity downrange. A BC of 0.535 is solid for the 140-grain class in 6.5 Creedmoor, meaning less velocity drop and wind deflection the farther your shot goes.
Sierra MatchKing bullets are designed and manufactured specifically for precision shooting. The hollow point and boat-tail configuration produce predictable, consistent flight characteristics—which is why they've shot more matches than any other rifle bullet. Federal pairs them with match-grade primers in Gold Medal loads to maximize that consistency.
