Barnes Match Burners Rifle Bullets 6.5mm .264" 140 gr BT MATCH 500/Box

Barnes Match Burners Rifle Bullets in 6.5mm .264" 140 grain with boat tail design deliver match-grade precision at a competitive price point. These lead core projectiles are engineered for competitive shooters and precision rifle enthusiasts who demand consistency without excessive cost. The 500-round bulk box format suits high-volume training and competition preparation, allowing shooters to establish reliable load data across extended shooting sessions.

The 140-grain weight in 6.5mm (.264") diameter represents a balanced choice for medium-range precision work. The boat tail profile reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficient, resulting in flatter trajectories and less wind drift compared to flat-base designs. Lead core construction maintains traditional manufacturing standards while keeping per-round costs accessible for shooters working through large quantities during load development or competitive season preparation. Each round ships at 10.26 lbs per 500-count box, confirming full inventory weight without missing rounds.

This ammunition format suits rifle competitors in precision rifle series, long-range target competitions, and handloaders optimizing 6.5mm cartridges like 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or other derivative calibers. Shooters committed to sub-MOA accuracy and repeatability appreciate bulk bullet purchases that enable statistical validation of load performance. The 500-count configuration reduces per-unit shipping costs compared to smaller packages and supports disciplined ammunition management during training blocks or match seasons.

Match-grade rifle bullets occupy a distinct market segment between budget plinking ammunition and ultra-premium target projectiles. Barnes Match Burners position themselves as a practical alternative to higher-cost match bullets, making them suitable for shooters balancing precision requirements with volume needs. Competitive pricing on bulk quantities aligns with the economics of serious handloading, where per-round savings compound significantly across development protocols and season-long competition schedules.
