Federal Premium 6.5 Creedmoor 130gr Barnes TSX

Federal Premium 6.5 Creedmoor with Barnes Triple-Shock X

Federal Premium has paired the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge with one of the most respected monolithic bullets in the industry: the Barnes Triple-Shock X. This ammunition represents a straightforward approach to rifle hunting—quality components loaded to sensible velocities that deliver results.

Bullet Design and Performance

The Barnes Triple-Shock X is a one-piece copper construction hollow point that has earned its reputation through consistent field performance. Key features include:

• All-copper monolithic construction for superior strength and reliability
• Deep hollow-point tip that initiates rapid, consistent expansion
• Grooved bullet shank that minimizes copper fouling in the barrel while improving accuracy
• Nearly 100% weight retention on impact, ensuring deep penetration through heavy bone and muscle
• Large-diameter expansion that creates a devastating wound channel

Practical Advantages

The monolithic design means you're not dealing with jacket-and-core separation. The bullet stays together, penetrates deep, and expands reliably—whether you're shooting at 100 yards or stretching it to 400. The grooved shank keeps your barrel cleaner, which translates to better accuracy over extended shooting sessions.

Loaded to 2825 feet per second, this ammunition delivers the velocity needed for the 6.5 Creedmoor to perform at distance while maintaining the inherent accuracy advantages of the cartridge.
