6.5 CREEDMOOR
Featuring inherently high Ballistic Coefficient (BC) 
6.5mm bullets that also deliver high Sectional Density 
(SD), the 6.5 Creedmoor provides superior external 
ballistics and shootability with comparable terminal 
ballistic performance to that of the venerable 308 
Winchester. Originally designed by Hornady® as a true 
match cartridge, the 6.5 Creedmoor is an exceptional 
choice for all LE/Military applications where the 308 Win 
had been the only option in the past.
6.5 CREEDMOOR 140 GR. TAP®  
HEAVY BARRIER™
NO. 81485  | 
Application:  Heavy Barrier
This load meets the FBI Protocol penetration requirement 
(12"-18") through heavy barriers (1" laminated glass, 1½" 
Lexan and 5⁄8" subway glass) with high weight retention. 
Featuring different tip geometry than TAP Precision® 
ammunition, this offering is loaded in a nickel-plated 
cartridge case making it easy to distinguish heavy barrier 
ammunition from other ammunition options.
NOTE:  Not recommended for use where over-penetration 
may be a concern.
6.5 CREEDMOOR 147 GR. MATCH  
TAP PRECISION®
NO. 81505
Application:  Precision  |  Meets FBI Protocol*
Hornady® 6.5 Creedmoor TAP Precision® is specifically 
designed to meet FBI protocol and provide superior external 
ballistics when compared to standard 308 Win offerings. 
The 147 gr. Match bullet with Heat Shield® tip delivers 
excellent terminal performance and results in higher retained 
velocities, less drop, less wind drift, and more energy 
on target.

6.5 CREEDMOOR 100 GR. TAP URBAN®
NO. 81515  
Application:  Entry, Precision
The Hornady ® 6.5 Creedmoor 100 gr. TAP Urban® is the 
preferred choice for use in rifles when the probability 
for barrier penetration is low. Rapid expansion provides 
dramatic wound cavities, massive fragmentation, and 
prevents over penetration on non-barrier engagements. 
These factors make this bullet a great choice when 
collateral risk is high.
