Description
Sierra’s MatchKing (SMK) projectiles are one of the most highly regarded designs in the world when it comes to long range precision shooting. As such, these bullets are appropriate for making medium .338 Lapua Magnum loads as well as for full bore cartridges in .338 RUM or Winchester Magnum. Each of these bullets undergoes a rigorous inspection phase which helps to guarantee a diameter measurement of .338 inches. The same methodology, exercised by both man and machine, ensures a projectile weight of 250 grains with no more than 0.3 grains of deviation.

This level of detail is made possible by the construction process of a hollow-point boat-tail (HPBT) bullet which starts with a meticulously cut gilding metal jacket with an enclosed base. The jacket is filled with lead wire which forms a core of consistent density with no air bubbles to disturb the bullet’s balance. As a result, handloaders can effortlessly craft ammunition capable of sub-MOA groups with the proper recipe. Sierra’s products are manufactured in Missouri and backed by nine decades of inventive design experience. Buying in bulk allows shooters to work up a proper load table in order to mirror performance that has won match trophies and made a huge impact in recent combat events.
