Hornady Bullets 6.5mm .264 - 140gr JSP (Jacketed Soft Point) are precision rifle projectiles engineered for hunters and precision shooters who demand consistent ballistics and reliable terminal performance. Packaged in a convenient 100-count box with 25 boxes per case, these bullets serve intermediate to long-range hunting applications where controlled expansion and deep penetration are essential. The 6.5mm/.264 caliber has gained widespread popularity in both tactical and hunting circles due to its flat trajectory and inherent accuracy, making Hornady's 140-grain offering an ideal choice for matching modern rifle platforms and achieving repeatable accuracy downrange.
The Jacketed Soft Point design combines a pure lead core with a copper jacket, allowing the projectile to expand reliably upon impact while maintaining structural integrity for deep, penetrating wounds. At 140 grains, this weight optimizes velocity retention and energy transfer across typical hunting distances, balancing aerodynamic efficiency with sustained terminal effect. Hornady's manufacturing process ensures strict quality control on weight uniformity and jacket concentricity, which translates directly to tighter shot groups and predictable point-of-impact shifts when loading. The soft point configuration makes these bullets suitable for both bolt-action and semi-automatic rifle platforms chambered in 6.5mm calibers such as the 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser, and similar cartridges.
Reloaders and ammunition manufacturers benefit most from bulk purchasing these 100-round boxes, as the case quantity (25 boxes) supports efficient inventory management for high-volume operations or extended shooting seasons. Hunters pursuing medium to large game at 200+ yards will find the 140-grain weight particularly effective, delivering the velocity needed for ethical kills while the soft point construction ensures sufficient tissue damage. Hand loaders should reference Hornady's reloading manuals for powder charges and seating depths specific to their cartridge of choice, as proper load development remains critical for safety and accuracy. The 2.05-pound box weight reflects the substantial metal content, confirming the dense, quality construction typical of Hornady's respected bullet line.
