The Hornady .243 6mm 105 Grain Hhb Aeromatch Bullets are match-grade reloading projectiles engineered to deliver consistent long-range accuracy and tight groupings for competitive precision shooting. Built with a hollow point boat tail (HPBT) compound profile, each projectile weighs 105 grains (approximately 6.80 grams) and offers a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.536. Designed as a direct drop-in match alternative, these bullets mirror widely used competitive profiles so handloaders can maintain existing seating depths, powder charges, and ballistic solver data without extensive load re-development across engagements from 100 to over 1,000 yards.

Key Features

• Drop-in Match Profile: Built with a standardized match compound profile that allows shooters to swap projectiles into established reloading recipes without altering powder loads or die seating settings.
• Aerodynamic Efficiency: Features a high-efficiency boat tail design yielding a 0.536 G1 ballistic coefficient and a 0.254 sectional density for reduced wind drift at extended ranges.
• Consistent Production: Manufactured in small, sequential production runs to reduce lot-to-lot dimensional and weight variance during high-volume match preparation.
• Broad Chamber Compatibility: Suitable for modern 6mm and .243 cartridges capable of seating long match bullets, including 6mm Creedmoor, 6mm GT, 6mm BR, 6mm Dasher, 6mm ARC, 6mm XC, and custom-throated .243 Winchester.

Who is the Hornady 6mm 105 Grain Aeromatch Bullet for?

• Precision Rifle Series competitors — requires stable trajectories out to 1,000+ yards, supported by this 6mm reload bullet's 0.536 G1 ballistic coefficient and 105 grains weight to maintain consistent wind holds through rapid positional strings.
• NRL competitors — benefits from a 105 grains match profile requiring a fast 1:8" barrel twist rate, ensuring reliable gyroscopic stability and repeatable elevation drops across variable barricade stages.
• Target benchrest shooters — relies on the 0.254 sectional density and 0.536 G1 ballistic coefficient of these 6mm reload bullets to print tight, repeatable groupings during precision load development.

Less suitable for: Rifles with a barrel twist rate slower than 1:8" (such as traditional 1:9" or 1:10" twist barrels) which fail to stabilize a 105-grain profile, requiring lighter 6mm match bullets instead; and hunters targeting medium or big game, who should select controlled-expansion hunting projectiles with bonded cores or expanding polymer tips rather than non-expanding hollow point match bullets.
