Overview
This article covers historical HSM item 65CREEDMOOR1N and UPC 810742025496. HSM’s current catalog includes a 140-grain Spitzer Boat Tail GameKing under the different code HSM-65Creedmoor-1-N140. Since the manufacturer identifier changed, the current entry’s ballistics are not presented as exact data for the historical item.
Official Ballistics
No exact-SKU official ballistics table is available. The historical item number 65CREEDMOOR1N is not present in the current manufacturer catalog, and data from a similar current load has not been substituted.
Bullet Design and Intended Use
The historical product description identifies a 140-grain Sierra GameKing spitzer boat-tail hunting bullet. It is not a polymer-tipped bullet, so the Bullet Type taxonomy has been corrected to soft point and boat tail.

FAQ
Is HSM 65CREEDMOOR1N still the current item number?
No. HSM’s current catalog lists a similar 140-grain GameKing load under code HSM-65Creedmoor-1-N140.
Why are the current HSM velocity and energy not used here?
The current official listing uses a different manufacturer code. Those figures are not treated as exact historical-SKU data without confirmation from HSM.
Is the Sierra GameKing SBT polymer tipped?
No. The historical product is identified as a spitzer boat-tail GameKing, not a polymer-tipped bullet.
Why is wind drift omitted?
HSM does not publish an exact-SKU trajectory or wind-drift table for historical item 65CREEDMOOR1N.
What is the intended use?
This GameKing load is a hunting configuration built around a 140-grain Sierra spitzer boat-tail bullet.
