About this product
You're dialing in dope cards and chasing sub-MOA groups anyway—might as well have the cartridge that makes it easier. This isn't your granddad's Creedmoor. Federal's +Peak load jacks the 6.5 Creedmoor up with a claimed 300 fps over standard fare, pushing it past even the 6.5 PRC, all while staying within spec for your existing chamber. The secret's a rugged, heat-treated nickel case built for 80,000 psi and topped with a Berger Elite Hunter bullet, so you get a high-BC projectile with a J4 jacket for consistent expansion and match-grade accuracy from the box.
- Berger Elite Hunter bullet with high BC & J4 jacket for precise terminal performance
- Proprietary Peak Alloy nickel-plated case, heat-treated for 80,000 psi peak pressure
- Delivers ~300 fps over standard 6.5 Creedmoor; about 100 fps faster than 6.5 PRC
- 20-round factory box, ready for your standard 6.5 Creedmoor rifle (arrives summer 2026)
This is for the shooter who wants to stretch their Creedmoor rifle's legs on steel or game without stepping into a new caliber.
