6.5 Creedmoor +Peak Barnes LRX

About this product

You've dialed in your chassis, bedded your action, and matched it with glass that tells you everything. Now give it the ammunition that keeps up. Federal's 6.5 Creedmoor +Peak with the Barnes LRX is where modern bullet construction meets a cartridge case pushed to its intelligent limit.

The foundation is the Peak Alloy case—a heat-treated, nickel-plated hull rated for an 80,000 psi peak pressure. This specialized brass delivers a 300 fps advantage over standard Creedmoor loads, even nudging past the 6.5 PRC by about 100 fps, all while running in your existing chamber. Driving that speed is the all-copper Barnes LRX bullet, a lead-free design built for deep, consistent penetration on game.

• Barnes LRX all-copper monolithic hunting bullet
• Peak Alloy nickel-plated case, 80,000 psi rated
• ~100 fps faster than 6.5 PRC from a Creedmoor chamber
• 20-round factory box (available Summer 2026)

This is the factory load for the precision hunter whose rifle is a finished instrument, demanding ammunition that exploits every bit of legal chamber pressure for a flatter trajectory and decisive terminal performance.
