The Barnes Steward Collection 6.5 Creedmoor 105-grain Sierra Tipped VarmintKing (TVK) Brass 20-round box is specialized centerfire rifle ammunition engineered specifically for long-range predator control, varmint hunting, and varmint management across open terrain. A primary operational limitation when engaging small predators at extended distances is the failure of heavier game bullets to expand on thin-skinned targets, leading to narrow wound channels and lost animals. Barnes resolves these varmint hunting bottlenecks by pairing factory-loaded consistency with Sierra’s aerodynamic 105-grain Tipped VarmintKing projectile, delivering hyper-flat trajectories, reduced wind drift, and explosive fragmentation upon impact.
The core technical advantage relies on the projectile's lightweight 105-grain Sierra Tipped VarmintKing (TVK) architecture. Featuring a sleek polymer tip paired with a thin, custom-drawn copper jacket and a swaged lead core, the bullet achieves a high 0.425 G1 ballistic coefficient. Upon impact, the hard polymer tip acts as a wedge, driving backward into the core to initiate instantaneous, explosive fragmentation. This rapid energy transfer eliminates pass-throughs and anchors coyotes, bobcats, and small game instantly without energy loss.
Utilizing a lightweight 105-grain payload to maximize the powder capacity of the 6.5 Creedmoor case, this Steward Collection loading generates high muzzle velocity and exceptionally flat downrange flight lines. Assembled in premium reloadable virgin brass cases paired with clean-burning propellants and non-corrosive Boxer primers, the cartridge guarantees uniform chamber pressure, reliable ignition, and smooth cycling across bolt-action and semi-automatic precision platforms.
Key Benefits
