The Lapua MaxRange Target is the Finnish company's newest 6.5mm match bullet, and it was built from the ground up for shooters who range their targets way out past comfortable distances. This 144 grain (9.3 gram) open tip match projectile carries bullet code GB582 and measures a true .264 inch (6.71 mm) diameter, so it drops right into your favorite 6.5 handloads for the bench, the match, or long sessions chasing ragged one-hole groups.
What sets the MaxRT apart is its ballistic efficiency. Lapua lists a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.670 and a G7 of 0.335, which puts it near the top of the pack for 6.5mm match bullets. That translates to less wind drift and flatter drop when the yardage stacks up, which is exactly what you want when conditions are switching on you at distance. The boat-tail profile and high-BC ogive keep the bullet stable and predictable from the muzzle all the way downrange.
Lapua's reputation is built on consistency, and these projectiles carry that forward with the tight tolerances and quality materials the brand is known for. Loaders who have run them note a longer bearing surface seated a touch further forward than some competitors, which makes it easier to tune your jump to the lands. The result on paper and steel is minimal vertical dispersion and repeatable ballistics round after round.
This bullet shines in disciplines like PRS, F-Class, Fullbore, NRL Hunter, and ELR, and it feeds well into popular chamberings such as 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 6.5×47 Lapua, and 6.5×55. Lapua recommends a twist rate around 1-8.5 inches for reliable stabilization, and the common 1-8 twist barrels so many 6.5 rifles ship with handle it nicely. Published reloading data is available through the Vihtavuori app and other load sources, so you can work up a safe charge for your specific rifle. For anyone building a precision load that needs to hold together way downrange, the MaxRT is a serious contender.
Lapua lists a G1 BC of 0.670 and a G7 BC of 0.335 for this 6.5mm MaxRT bullet. Those numbers put it among the top performers in its class for 6.5mm match projectiles. The high BC means less wind drift and flatter drop as the distance opens up.
Lapua recommends a twist rate around 1-8.5 inches for reliable stabilization of this bullet. The 1-8 twist barrels that most 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.5 PRC rifles ship with handle it well. If your barrel stabilizes 140-class match bullets without issue, the 144 MaxRT should run fine.
Being a standard .264 inch diameter projectile, it works in most popular 6.5mm chamberings including 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 6.5×47 Lapua, and 6.5×55. It's aimed at long-range precision disciplines like PRS, F-Class, Fullbore, NRL Hunter, and ELR. Always work up a load using published data for your specific cartridge and rifle.
This is a component bullet only, meaning the projectile by itself for handloading. It does not include cases, powder, or primers. You'll need to assemble your own loads using safe published reloading data.
