In the realm of precision shooting, where every shot must count, the 6.5mm .264 caliber Spitzer bullet stands out as a paragon of engineering excellence. Designed for those who demand accuracy and performance from their ammunition, this 120-grain marvel is crafted to deliver remarkable downrange results.
The Spitzer shape—known for its aerodynamic efficiency—ensures superior ballistic coefficients across various velocity ranges: .356 at speeds above 2800 feet per second (fps), progressing through .368 between 2800 and 2200 fps, reaching up to an impressive .400 at velocities below 1800 fps. This translates into consistent trajectory and retained energy over long distances.
This round excels in medium game hunting when paired with cartridges like the venerable 264 Winchester Magnum or the versatile 6.5x284 Norma. However, hunters should be cognizant that while it performs admirably at extended ranges due to its sectional density of .246, it may prove too delicate for close-quarter encounters.
For aficionados using smaller capacity cases akin to the popular 223 Remington loaded to maximum velocities, this bullet offers a compelling choice for all-around use without sacrificing accuracy. Though generally not recommended for handgun hunting due to its robust construction, it can still provide excellent target accuracy suitable even against full-size silhouettes when used judiciously in handguns.
Packed conveniently with a hundred rounds per box, each cartridge promises reliability—a quintessential trait demanded by marksmen dedicated to honing their craft or providing sustenance through ethical hunting practices.
