6.5 Creedmoor +Peak Terminal Ascent 130gr

About this product

You've chased the next edge in 6.5 performance, and it's loading into the mag. Federal's new Peaк Terminal Ascent cartridge doesn't just nudge the Creedmoor forward—it redefines the envelope. The proprietary bonded-core 130gr projectile with its Slipstream tip is built for long-range terminal performance, but it rides in on a wave the platform hasn't seen before.

• Peaк Velocity: Pushes a full 300 fps faster than standard Creedmoor loads and beats the 6.5 PRC by about 100 fps, courtesy of the advanced 80,000 psi pressure rating and heat-treated nickel-plated Peaк Alloy case.
• Chamber-Ready: No gunsmithing required; this factory-loaded round runs in your existing 6.5 Creedmoor barrel and chamber.
• Technical Foundation: The bonded core ensures weight retention on game, while the case technology provides reliable, consistent ignition.
• Available Summer 2026: Twenty rounds per box. This isn't just another load; it's a ballistic reset for your precision rifle.

For the shooter who needs extended point-blank range and flat trajectory without stepping up to a magnum cartridge, this is your new baseline.
