“Ten bullets through one hole.” Joyce Hornady’s motto is one any long-distance shooter should strive to live by – and they can, when they choose Hornady Match.

This 6.5mm Creedmoor cartridge is strictly intended for target shooting, as its ELD Match projectile does not deliver the terminal expansion that fells game quickly. Every feature the ELD Match does have is in service of sharpening its accuracy. That includes a Heat Shield tip, which is made of polymer that cannot and will not deform while it endures brutal aerodynamic heating, as well as a sleek secant ogive profile, boat tail, and Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket which exhibits practically flawless concentricity.

Hornady captured this round’s 2,710 fps muzzle velocity, .646 G1 BC and .326 G7 BC with the aid of a 24” barrel. With 1.5” high sights, the 140 grain ELD-X will reach a 200-yard zero with 1,823 ft lbs energy and then drop -7.8” at 300 yards.

Hornady assembles all of this round’s components in accordance with extremely tight tolerances. Superior lot-to-lot consistency means you can fire two different boxes and rightly expect interchangeable results. It’s a sharpshooter’s dream.
