First Look: G9 Defense 6.5 Creedmoor Solid Copper Super Match

A brief look at the new 120-grain 6.5 Creedmoor Solid Copper Super Match ammo from G9 Defense.

G9 Defense has just released a new 6.5 Creedmoor load that should have long-range shooters excited. Called the Solid Copper Super Match, it features a 120-grain monolithic copper projectile that was designed to push the limits of long-range accuracy.

Each 6.5 Creedmoor Super Match projectile is machine-turned, resulting in a ballistic coefficient with an impressively low standard deviation. G9 Defense’s patented side geometry has allowed for improved internal ballistics as well, and these changes mean that there’s less friction in the barrel. Result? Higher muzzle velocities while remaining within SAAMI standard pressures and longer fire strings without overheating your barrel. Further, G9 Defense is using premium brass from Alpha Munitions that features its Optimized Case Design technology.
