6.5 x 140gr (Gen-III) - Factory Tipped (Coming Soon)

$91.95
THE ALL NEW GEN III IS HERE!
  • Factory radius tipped for excellent ballistic uniformity throughout flight (see data charts below)
  • Target / match jackets with industry leading runouts!
  • Hard hitting and dependable (and proven) deer/pig round in all calibers (Including Grendels)

Features: 

Due to it's design and pointing profile, it has ULTRA consistent OAL, BTO and ballistic performance in flight. That is, as it travels down range, it maintains it's G7 throughout the flight curve. Meaning you can trust your dope / solver information for an accurate hit on target at extended ranges and varying wind conditions.

Raw Data from test shoots.

Raw Data Summary (Both Strings)



Distance Shot 1 (fps) Shot 2 (fps) Average Velocity (fps)
Muzzle 2773 2781 2777
25 yd 2731 2739 2735
50 yd 2690 2696 2693
150 yd 2528 2533 2530.5
200 yd 2449 2452 2450.5

Average muzzle velocity across both strings: 2777 fps 

Averaged Ballistic Coefficients (G1 and G7)

Full velocity-decay fitting using the average velocities as the target curve, under the same atmospheric conditions (31.7°C, 1006 mbar, 63% RH, density altitude ~1,900 ft). Here are the results:



Drag Model Best-Fit BC (Averaged Strings) Notes
G1 BC 0.568 Very good fit, but still slightly underpredicts drag at 200 yd
G7 BC 0.287 Outstanding match—within ±1–2 fps across the entire range

Predicted vs. Actual (Using G7 BC = 0.287)

Using the G7 model with BC = 0.287 and muzzle velocity 2777 fps:


Distance Measured Average (fps) Predicted (fps) Difference
Muzzle 2777 2777 0 fps
25 yd 2735 2735 0 fps
50 yd 2693 2694 +1 fps
150 yd 2530.5 2531 +0.5 fps
200 yd 2450.5 2451 +0.5 fps

That’s almost spooky—literally within chronograph noise.
