Anyone know when Hornady is going to cut loose with some more. I was hoping it would happen soon before I had to go with a different brand.
 
Try their 140 bthp. Close to the same BC, cheaper than a-max and I've had great luck with the 178's in .308. Powder Valley has them in stock now.
 
6.5 Hornady A-max

140s have been available for a while now; 123s are much harder to come by.

And +1 on the HPBT, though I don't believe their actual BC is as close to a 140 Amax as advertised (Litz G7 for a 139 Scenar has worked great for me out to 900).
 
The 123's are near impossible to find right now.


You guys recommending the 140 BTHP's are crazy. Those suck.......majorly............wouldn't hit the broad side of a barn if you drew a map to it. I'm trying to save the other 6.5 shooters out there this disappointment and get them off the market so I can store them at my house, to be properly disposed of.
