Ally Munitions – Cull Buck Series – 6.5 Grendel 100gr ELD® Match
Cull Buck Series – Built to Kill, Priced to Hunt
The Cull Buck Series is built for hunters who demand serious accuracy, consistent performance, and devastating terminal effects—without paying top-shelf prices. Like our premier offerings, each round undergoes handloading, quality control, and multi-platform testing. The difference? We cut costs where it counts: using proven lower-cost brass and projectiles, while maintaining top-quality powders for reliable ignition, clean burn, and excellent temperature stability.
Projectile Details
This load features Hornady’s 100gr ELD® Match—a high-BC match projectile that also performs impressively in the field. While designed for precision shooting, we’ve had outstanding real-world hunting results, especially on deer and hogs. It expands reliably within practical hunting distances and offers superb accuracy, even from short barrels.
-
Excellent for mixed-bag hunts where both accuracy and terminal performance matter
-
Balanced energy and speed for AR-15 pattern rifles and bolt actions
-
Sub-MOA capable with real-world data to back it

Velocity Chart
All testing was conducted through suppressed rifles at 75°F. The 30°F velocities shown below are calculated using our in-house velocity modeling tool, which factors in barrel length, powder temperature sensitivity, and data from our extensive internal testing library. While these outputs are highly accurate for comparative planning, it is still strongly advised to chronograph your ammo to capture true platform-specific performance.
Barrel Length | Velocity @ 75°F (fps) | Velocity @ 30°F (fps) |
---|---|---|
12.5" | 2400 | 2375 |
16" | 2591 | 2566 |
18" | 2700 | 2675 |
20" | 2740 | 2715 |
How These Velocities Are Calculated: Our In-House Ballistic Engine
Our proprietary velocity model is designed to reflect real-world performance by factoring in:
-
Live chronograph results across multiple barrels
-
Powder-specific temperature sensitivity
-
Altitude (tested at 2,550 ft)
-
Platform efficiency
-
Simulated spread of ±10 FPS per barrel length
This approach lets hunters make real ballistic decisions—from DOPE sheets to drop charts—based on more than just guesswork. Always chronograph your ammo through your rifle for true real-world results, as many factors go into actual velocity in your platform—such as chamber specs, atmospheric conditions, barrel length, etc.
