Weathery Select Plus ammunition represents the pinnacle of magnum cartridge design paired with premium bullet technology. This 6.5 WBY RPM load combines Weatherby's legendary velocity with Barnes' renowned LRX lead-free projectiles for a hunting round that delivers exceptional performance across diverse shooting situations.

Cartridge Design
