The Hornady Match 6mm .243 105 Grain BTHP bullet is a precision reloading component designed for long-range target shooting and competitive disciplines. Engineered with Hornady's Advanced Manufacturing Process (AMP) jacket, this 105 gr projectile features near-zero wall thickness variation to maintain rotational stability at high velocities. Its secant ogive profile and boat tail base produce a high ballistic coefficient, allowing handloaders to achieve flat trajectories and stable downrange velocity retention from 100 metres out past 1,000 metres. This bulk box contains 500 individual reloading projectiles and does not contain loaded ammunition, propellants, or primers.

Key Features

  • AMP Bullet Jackets: Features virtually zero runout and near-zero wall thickness variation to maintain rotational balance at high spin rates.
  • Secant Ogive Profile: Delivers a high G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.530 for reduced aerodynamic drag and minimal wind drift across extended distances.
  • Calibre-Optimised Boat Tail: Angled base configuration reduces base drag and improves transition stability through transonic envelopes.
  • Bulk Component Packaging: Supplied in a 500-count bulk box to provide handloaders with consistent batch matching for competitive rifle series.

Who is the Hornady Match 6mm 105 Grain BTHP Bullet 500 Pack for?

  • Precision Rifle Series (PRS) handloaders — Benefits from the 500-count bulk packaging to produce large, single-lot batches of match cartridges that maintain consistent point-of-impact across extended multi-stage matches.
  • F-Class and benchrest competitors — Relies on the aerodynamic efficiency of the 0.530 G1 ballistic coefficient to minimise wind deflection across target distances stretching from 300 to beyond 1,000 metres.
  • Long-range 6mm Creedmoor and 6mm BR shooters — Leverages the 1.220-inch overall length and 105-grain mass to achieve maximum gyroscopic stability in modern precision rifle platforms.

Less suitable for: Standard factory hunting rifles chambered in .243 Winchester with slow 1:10" or 1:9.25" twist barrels, which cannot stabilise this 1.220-inch bullet and require lighter 70 to 87 gr projectiles instead. It is also unsuitable for medium-to-large game hunting because the non-expanding hollow-point match tip is not designed for terminal expansion; hunters targeting game require controlled-expansion hunting projectiles.
