Description

Federal 6.5 PRC 143 Grain ELD-X Rifle Ammunition sets the standard for long-range precision and terminal performance. Designed for hunters and marksmen who demand accuracy and consistency at extended distances, this premium rifle cartridge blends Federal’s trusted brass and powder engineering with Hornady’s legendary ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet design.

The 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) was developed for shooters who need magnum-level velocity in a short-action platform. Federal’s P65PRCELDX1 load maximizes this potential by pushing a 143-grain Hornady ELD-X projectile with consistent muzzle velocity, high ballistic coefficients, and tight group dispersion across long-range engagements. Each round is engineered for stability, accuracy, and lethal energy retention from muzzle to target.

At the core of this round is Hornady’s Heat Shield Tip, an advanced polymer design that resists aerodynamic heating and maintains a perfect meplat during flight. This ensures a true ballistic coefficient and predictable downrange performance, even in varying temperatures and extended shot distances. Upon impact, the bullet’s InterLock ring secures the jacket and core together, enabling deep penetration and controlled expansion — ideal for large-game hunting such as elk, mule deer, and whitetail in open terrain.

Federal’s premium brass cases are precision-drawn for consistent chambering, reliable extraction, and long-term reloadability. The propellant blend is optimized for clean burning and temperature stability, maintaining consistent velocities from shot to shot. Combined with Federal’s sealed primers, this cartridge maintains dependability under extreme field conditions, whether in freezing mountain air or hot, dry desert hunts.

For hunters and long-range enthusiasts, the Federal 6.5 PRC 143 Grain ELD-X rifle rounds offer a superior balance of speed, energy, and accuracy. Its supersonic flight path remains consistent beyond 1,000 yards, delivering match-grade precision and ethical terminal energy where it matters most. Federal 6.5 PRC 143 Grain ELD-X delivers match-grade precision.
