The 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum is the fastest production 6.5mm on the market, and this Select Plus loading pairs that raw speed with Berger's purpose-built 156-grain Extreme Outer Limits Elite Hunter projectile. What you get is a long-range hunting cartridge that delivers exceptional downrange energy and minimal wind drift without sacrificing accuracy.
These aren't off-the-shelf projectiles. The 156-grain Berger EOL Elite Hunters are designed specifically for the extreme hunting scenarios where distance matters. The hybrid ogive design blends tangent and secant curves to optimize aerodynamic efficiency while minimizing sensitivity to seating depth. You get a sleek profile with an ultra-high ballistic coefficient and increased sectional density that translates to better energy retention at extended ranges. The J4 Precision hunting jacket is engineered to penetrate about 2-3 inches before rapidly expanding, creating controlled wound channels without premature deflection on bone.
Weatherby's Select Plus ammunition uses only quality components built for consistency. You're looking at new production, non-corrosive boxer-primed rounds with brass cases that are fully reloadable for those who want to squeeze every bit of precision from their handloads. The 156-grain bullet exits the muzzle at 3,050 fps, generating 3,222 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. At 400 yards, this load is still carrying energy comparable to what most moderate magnums produce at the barrel.
This ammunition works best for hunters and long-range shooters who've invested in rifles chambered specifically for the 6.5-300. The combination of magnum velocity and heavy-for-caliber bullets makes it ideal for pursuing mid-sized to large game at distances where trajectory and wind drift become real variables. If you're shooting beyond typical hunting ranges, the ballistics advantage of the 156-grain projectile at magnum velocity becomes apparent.
This ammunition is designed for rifles chambered specifically in 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum. You need a rifle built for this cartridge, as it won't function in other 6.5mm chambers like the Creedmoor or PRC. Weatherby manufactures rifles in this caliber, and some custom gunmakers chamber it as well.
The 156-grain projectile delivers a higher ballistic coefficient and better energy retention downrange compared to lighter options. You trade a small amount of velocity for that heavier bullet, but the tradeoff is worth it at extended ranges where wind drift and trajectory consistency become critical. The heavier mass also provides better penetration on larger game.
Yes. The brass cases are fully reloadable with boxer primers, making them ideal if you develop custom loads. Many handloaders prefer Select Plus ammunition specifically because of the quality brass that can survive multiple reloading cycles, though you'll need load data specific to Berger's 156-grain Elite Hunter bullet for your particular rifle.
These rounds are built for medium to large game hunting at extended ranges. The 156-grain Elite Hunter is suitable for whitetail, mule deer, and elk-sized game. The controlled expansion design and high energy levels make it appropriate for serious long-range hunting situations where precision and terminal performance are non-negotiable.
