The Nosler RDF 6.5mm 150-grain hollow point boat tail is a purpose-built reloading bullet engineered for shooters who demand flat trajectories and minimal wind deflection. Whether you're handloading for long-range hunting, precision rifle competition, or serious target work, the RDF delivers the ballistic performance that justifies meticulous ammunition assembly. Each box contains 100 bullets ready to load.
Nosler designed the RDF from the ground up around a compound ogive profile and extended boat tail geometry—both optimized to achieve exceptional ballistic coefficients that cut through wind and extend your effective range. The result is a sleek, efficient projectile that behaves predictably downrange. The 6.5mm 150-grain weight sits in the sweet spot for medium-to-heavy magnum cartridges, making these bullets a natural choice for 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, and similar modern precision platforms.
A practical advantage often overlooked: RDF hollow points feature the smallest and most consistent meplats in Nosler's match bullet lineup. That means less pointing or tip-trimming before you load, saving frustration and keeping your assembly process efficient. Combined with reliable feeding characteristics and uniform construction, these bullets reward the care you put into handloading.
| Caliber | 6.5mm |
| Bullet Weight | 150 grains |
| Bullet Type | RDF (Nosler proprietary design) |
| Profile | Hollow Point Boat Tail |
| Ballistic Coefficient (G1) | 0.670 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (G7) | 0.342 |
| Sectional Density | 0.327 |
| Overall Length | 1.505 inches |
| Box Quantity | 100 bullets |
These 6.5mm bullets are suitable for a wide range of 6.5-caliber cartridges, including 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, .264 Winchester Magnum, and similar platform rifles. Always verify that the bullet weight and length are appropriate for your specific firearm and reloading manual before assembly.
RDF bullets are designed for handloaders of varying experience levels. The consistent meplats and minimal setup required make them easier to work with than some alternatives. However, handloading ammunition requires proper equipment, knowledge, and adherence to published load data—consult reliable reloading manuals and follow safe practices.
The hollow point allows for controlled expansion on game, while the boat tail base reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficient. Together, these features provide a flatter trajectory and better wind-resistance compared to flat-based designs, making them ideal for longer-range shooting applications.
Each box contains 100 Nosler RDF 6.5mm 150-grain hollow point boat tail bullets, a convenient quantity for a full handloading session or range evaluation.
