The Nosler Trophy Grade 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr Partition ammunition comes as 20 rounds in one box (Nosler part no. 61016). The load uses a 140-grain spitzer Partition bullet seated in Nosler premium brass, made for the 6.5 Creedmoor. Nosler describes the Partition as the benchmark for hunting bullets since 1948, and its dual-core design expands the foremost core quickly while an integral partition supports the mushroom. Nosler lists it for deer-sized game, so it suits a hunter who wants factory ammunition without working up a handload. Nosler lists 2,650 fps at the muzzle and 2,183 ft-lbs of muzzle energy from a 24-inch test barrel.
