Americans have never enjoyed a great relationship with 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka (aka 6.5 Japanese) ammunition. Prior to 1945, we frequently found ourselves on the wrong side of its bullets. And after the Japanese dumped all of their munitions into the Pacific (in compliance with the conditions of their surrender), 6.5 Japanese ammo became exceedingly difficult to find (unless you were a crab).

Bannerman is on a mission to fix that. That’s why the American company has imported Prvi Partizan’s high-quality new brass and loaded it with the perfect bullets for all manners of target practice!

Just like Japan’s original Type 38 spitzer round, this cartridge is loaded with a 139 grain projectile. The full metal jacket is steel-free, as well as outfitted with a tapering boat tail to improve velocity retention and minimize wind interference. And those aforementioned brand new brass cases? They’re noncorrosive Boxer-primed and reloadable, so you can handcraft your own 6.5 Japanese ammo ad nauseum!
