Nosler 6.5 PRC ammunition (part no. 40688) loads a 120-grain E-Tip Lead-Free for hunters who want a bullet that performs the same way shot after shot. Nosler is best known for the bullets serious hunters trust, and it loads those same projectiles into its factory ammunition. The lead-free copper alloy bullet is bonded in one piece rather than jacketed, so it expands into uniform petals without fragmenting or leaving a lead residue in the wound channel. 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.
