Hornady 6.5 PRC ammunition (part no. 81620) loads a 147-grain ELD Match Boat Tail Hollow Point for competitive and long-range shooters chasing tighter groups. Hornady builds its ammunition around match-grade bullets designed in-house, giving hunters and shooters factory-loaded consistency. The Heat Shield polymer tip resists melting from friction at high velocity while the boat tail profile delivers a high ballistic coefficient built for competition-grade accuracy, not hunting expansion. Brass-cased and 20 to a box, it is built to feed reliably through bolt guns and semi-autos chambered for the cartridge. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this 6.5 PRC loading is a confirmed, dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
