Sellier & Bellot 142gr HPBT 6.5 Creedmoor Group Test

Shooting the Sellier & Bellot 142 gr HPBT out of the Ruger American 6.5 Creedmoor Go Wild. We shot a 3 shot group at 150 yards.

Beautiful land.

Thank you

[@MisterBrewer]

Sweet group for 150 yards. Really enjoyed the ending. :)

[@931livin8]

Thank you sir.....thanks for watching

[@Cw81Deut6n4]

I have the same rifle. Really like it. I have reloaded several loads for it to try out. That being said, hornady whitetail ammo shoots good through it too.

[@931livin8]

Thanks for the info. I'll have to try them sometime.

[@sealsrx7252]

That S&B is good, I have used their 6.5 140gr soft point and it performs well; MOA or better @ 100 meters

[@931livin8]

Yes, I'm a big fan of it.

[@kurtglo]

Curious if you have shot any deer with that ammo? I picked up a box of this ammo at Family farm & Home and have used it for target shooting but I'm wondering what kind of penetration it will have?

[@931livin8]

No I actually picked mine up a few months back. I think it would be fine for the deer as long as the placement was good.

[@robertlandrum1876]

that is a target round. not recommended for deer. good for coyotes and other varmints.

[@931livin8]

@@robertlandrum1876 you are correct would not be my first choice. I just rezeroed the Barnes 127gr lrx for deer season.

[@Drivapete]

​@@931livin8 you can't go wrong with the 127gr lrx. I'm getting 2800fps plus and 1/2 moa from my handloads. They like Hodgdon Superformance powder in my 6.5 Wby Vanguard. Just be sure to take a direct shoulder shot if possible for best results. Barnes lrx, TTSX and TSX are constructed to penetrate heavy bone and hold together.

[@AJPPP]

you can literally see the table move every time you bump it... lmfao

[@931livin8]

Yeah, definitely not the most solid rest. Makes me think how much better it would do on a solid bench.
