The Sierra 2200 MatchKing bullets are meticulously designed for competitive shooters seeking record-setting accuracy. Each bullet is a 168-grain HPBT projectile, measuring 0.308 inches in diameter, ideal for precision long-range shooting.
The Hollow Point Boat Tail (HPBT) design contributes to a high ballistic coefficient, optimizing aerodynamic efficiency for reduced drag and increased stability during flight. These bullets have been a preferred choice in Service Rifle competitions, particularly in M1A and M14 rifles, and are a staple in long-range and precision rifle competitions.
These bullets are not recommended for hunting applications, as their design does not provide the explosive expansion typically needed for effective terminal performance on game. However, they are sometimes used for varmint hunting due to their precision characteristics.
Each box contains either 100 or 500 bullets, ensuring reloaders have ample supply for their target shooting needs.
