SIG Sauer has extended its line of Elite Match premium competition ammunition with the addition of 6 mm Creedmoor.

Featuring a 107-gr. Sierra MatchKing bullet, the new 6 mm Creedmoor Elite Match OTM load has a muzzle velocity of 2,950 f.p.s. and muzzle energy of 2,068 ft-lbs. 

“6 mm Creedmoor is a popular long-range round that performs well in wind thanks to its high ballistic coefficient and flat trajectory,” said Brad Criner, senior director, Brand Management and Business Development. “We are pleased to offer this highly accurate round for competition shooters along with 6.5 Creedmoor and numerous other match grade loads.”

SIG Elite Match ammunition is currently available in .223 Rem., .300 BLK, .308 Win., .30-06 Springfield, .300 Win. Mag., 6 mm Creedmoor and 6.5 Creedmoor.

SIG Sauer Elite Match ammunition features a temperature-stable propellant that delivers consistent muzzle velocity in all weather conditions.  Premium-quality primers ensure minimum velocity variations, and the shell case metallurgy is optimized in the SIG Elite Match OTM cartridge to yield consistent bullet retention round to round. All SIG Sauer rifle ammunition is precision loaded on state-of-the-art equipment that is 100 percent electromechanically monitored to ensure geometric conformity and charge weight consistency

The SIG Sauer 6mm Creedmoor Elite Match ammunition is now available for purchase at the sigsauer.com/store
