Range Report 6.5CM Nexus Ammo @ Sportsmans

[Primus]

Sportsman had 5 boxes of 6.5CM 142gr SMK for $19.99 a box. I was going to grab a few boxes of 147ELD but this was like 60% of the price.

Anyone know anything about them? Looks like virgin hornday brass with 142gr SMK. Any idea of powder/primers? How do they shoot.

Trying to decide if its worth shooting or just pulling down the components and reloading them depending on which powder they use.

Thanks

I shot a match this year and there was a shooter from the Prostaff Cadex shooter running this stuff. He claimed it was better than Hornady and gave me a box to test.

I haven't been able to justify the $34/box, at $20/box I would buy all they had.

Yeah I'm gonna head over there today and see if they have more. Might even hit the other sportsman's in the area to see if they have some.

At $20 a box, why not? That’s a decent deal

The only bad 6.5 CM factory ammo that has shot bad for me is from Remmington. Everything else has done very respectable. Give it a go...for that price the practice and the brass is recouped and then some
