Product Description
Sierra MatchKing Tipped Features The Sierra MatchKing Tipped bullet builds on the legacy of the original jacketed lead MatchKing by adding an acetal resin tip to the ogive which reduces aerodynamic drag and improves the bullet s ballistic coefficient compared to its hollow point predecessor. At 6mm caliber with a .243 inch bullet diameter these projectiles weigh 115 to 117 grains placing them in a popular weight range for 6mm Creedmoor 6mm ARC and similar cartridges used in long-range and competitive shooting. The tipped profile also promotes more reliable feeding from box magazines addressing a common complaint with traditional hollow point match bullets that can hang up on feed ramps. Despite the added tip Sierra maintains the same demanding manufacturing tolerances that have made the MatchKing line a benchmark in competitive shooting circles. Reloaders benefit from the flatter trajectories and reduced wind drift that the tipped design provides both of which matter significantly at extended ranges where wind calls and bullet drop compound quickly. Packaged 500 to a box this quantity suits high-volume shooters who load in bulk for practice competition or load development work. Sierra notes that these Tipped MatchKing bullets are intended for target shooting applications and are not recommended for most hunting use reflecting their design priority toward accuracy and consistency over terminal expansion. As a reloading component these bullets require the shooter to assemble them into finished cartridges using appropriate cases powder and primers. The Sierra MatchKing Tipped 6mm bullets in 115 to 117 grain packaged 500 to a box are available for sale at GrabAGun for precision reloaders.
