Built for Real-World Hunting

The 6.5x55 is renowned for mild recoil and outstanding penetration—especially with 140-grain bullets that carry excellent sectional density. The Hornady SST elevates that reputation: its sharp polymer tip resists deformation in the magazine, initiates expansion on impact, and helps keep trajectories flat, while its jacket design promotes reliable mushrooming without fragmenting excessively. The result is repeatable on-game performance across a wide range of shot angles.

Accuracy You Can Trust

HSM’s attention to component uniformity and charge weight consistency helps you print predictable groups and maintain dope from range to field. The SST’s aerodynamic profile preserves velocity and mitigates wind drift, giving you extra confidence for longer, ethical shots when conditions and your skill allow.

Ideal Hunts & Environments

• Whitetail & Mule Deer: Rapid, controlled expansion for quick, humane results.

• Pronghorn & Antelope: Flat-shooting accuracy in open terrain with crosswinds.

• Hogs & Similar Game: Robust penetration from the 140-grain weight class with energetic upset.

Range Prep & Zeroing Tips

• Confirm Zero at your expected distance (many hunters prefer 200 yards for 6.5x55).

• Chronograph if possible to fine-tune drop and wind charts for your rifle.

• Record Conditions (temp, altitude, DA) to keep your ballistic data honest throughout the season.

Storage & Handling

• Store in a cool, dry place; avoid solvents and prolonged moisture exposure.

• Rotate ammo using first-in, first-out (FIFO) for consistent lot performance.
