Prime Ammunition quickly became the darling of precision long-range rifle shooters around the country with high-quality ammo sourced from Europe. After a hiatus, the company recently announced they are back and currently taking orders for 6.5 Creedmoor loads made in the USA. Prime says that orders will be shipping no later than August 1. Watch the video above to see Prime's re-released 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge in action.

This new USA-sourced 6.5 Creedmoor load from Prime boasts impressive numbers.

The new 6.5 Creedmoor recipe will be familiar to Prime Ammo fans. The USA-sourced bullet is a 130-grain OTM with Peterson brass. Prime worked hard to make sure the new cartridge is consistent with the previous 6.5 Creedmoor recipe that precision shooters fell in love with.

There are three different packages available for sale, all of which include free shipping. These packages are all sold by the case, as the company is not taking box-based orders at the moment. Package 1 is five cases of ammo for $1,383.08. Package 2 is three cases for $861 and Package 3 is a single case for $287.
