Hornady's ELD Match 6.5mm bullets are engineered for precision shooters and competitive reloaders who demand consistency and performance at distance. These .264" 147-grain polymer-tipped bullets combine advanced aerodynamic design with meticulous manufacturing to deliver tight groups and repeatable accuracy—whether you're loading for a precision rifle competition, long-range hunting, or a dedicated range day. The 500-round bulk box (packed 6 per case) gives you the volume serious handloaders need without compromising on quality.
The Heat Shield tip is the standout feature here. Unlike conventional polymer tips that can deform under aerodynamic heating at high velocities, Hornady's proprietary design resists shape change, preserving the meplat (tip geometry) so each bullet maintains its intended ballistic profile. That precision tip, combined with a secant ogive and optimum boattail, delivers class-leading ballistic coefficients verified by Doppler radar. This isn't marketing—it's measured performance that translates to flatter trajectories and less wind drift on distant targets.
Consistency is baked into the manufacturing process. Each bullet features a precision swaged lead core for uniformity across the lot, and the highly concentric AMP jackets ensure concentricity that matters when you're chasing tight ES and SD numbers. The patented Drag Variability Reduction Technology (DVRT) further tightens bullet-to-bullet drag uniformity, which reduces dispersion and helps you squeeze smaller groups, especially as distance increases.
If you're building ammunition where accuracy counts—whether for F-Class, PRS, or long-range hunting—these bullets reward a quality reload with genuine performance gains.
| Caliber | 6.5mm (.264") |
| Weight | 147 grains |
| Bullet Type | Polymer-tipped boattail |
| Count per Box | 500 rounds |
| Case Quantity | 6 boxes (3,000 rounds total) |
These are 6.5mm (.264") bullets designed for rifles chambered in 6.5mm cartridges, such as 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x55 Swedish, 6.5 PRC, and other .264" bore cartridges.
ELD Match bullets are designed specifically for accuracy and precision shooting. For hunting, Hornady offers their ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag eXpanding) line, which features controlled expansion. Confirm your intended use and choose the appropriate bullet type accordingly.
The Heat Shield tip resists deformation from aerodynamic heating at high velocity, maintaining the bullet's tip shape and meplat geometry throughout flight. This consistency helps preserve ballistic coefficient and accuracy, especially at extended ranges.
Each box contains 500 bullets. The product ships as a 6-box case, totaling 3,000 rounds—ideal for handloaders running high volume.
