6.5mm SIERRA MATCHKING HPBT 123gr x 100
R1,500.00 Incl.
The Sierra Matchking Bullets – 6.5mm Cal / .264″ 123gr HPBT is a pack of 100 bullets ideal for reloading .264″ and similar calibres. MatchKing are competition bullets, they have a design that provides a high ballistic coefficient, are highly accurate over a longer range and have been used by many competitors to set world records. This bullet is an expanding bullet that has a hollowed-out shape inside the tip intended to cause the bullet to expand upon entering a target. In target shooting, HP bullets are used for reduction of smoke, fouling and lead vapor exposure. Hollow point bullets are enclosed at the base, while traditional bullets are exposed. Boat Tail bullets are less sensitive to crosswinds, have a flatter trajectory, retain higher velocity downrange and deliver higher energy to the target in comparison to their flat base equivalents

Description
The 6.5mm 123 grain Hollow Point Boat Tail (1727) was designed to fill the gap for a mid-weight, high B.C. bullet for the ever-increasing 6.5mm long-range crowd. This bullet is a popular choice for long-range target and Silhouette customers. Keeping the long-range design in mind, we built this bullet with a longer ogive, smaller meplat and improved boat tail to preserve downrange efficiency, enhance accuracy, and reduce wind-drift.
While they are recognized around the world for record-setting accuracy, MatchKing® and Tipped MatchKing® bullets are not recommended for most hunting applications. Although MatchKing® and Tipped MatchKing® bullets are commonly used for varmint hunting, their heavier jackets will not provide the same reliable explosive expansion at equivalent velocities in varmints compared to their lightly jacketed Hornet, Blitz or Varminter counterparts.
