What is the SIERRA BULLETS, INC. - Tipped MatchKing 30 Caliber (0.308") 168gr PTBT 100/Box?

SIERRA TIPPED MATCHKING 30 CALIBER (0.308") POLYMER TIPPED BOAT TAIL RIFLE BULLETS


Sierra has enhanced a segment of the MatchKing line by adding the acetal resin tip, thus crowning the Tipped MatchKing (TMK) bullet line. The major advantage of adding a tip to the bullet is the reduction of drag, producing a more favorable ballistic coefficient.

The Tipped MatchKing (TMK) bullet is an excellent choice for F-Class (F Open) matches, as well as 3-Gun and various other competitions.

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 design will not provide the same reliable explosive expansion at equivalent velocities in varmints compared to their lightly jacketed Hornet, Blitz or Varminter counterparts.

Ammo Component Restriction
Please check with your state regulations for ownership of ammo components.

Prop 65WARNING: Lead - Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning firearms, or handling ammunition may result in exposure to lead and other substances known to cause birth defects, reproductive harm, and other serious physical injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands thoroughly after exposure.

Awesome bullets
I’ve been hand loading these rounds since they hit the market. They absolutely shoot a single bug hole at 100m

Sierra TMK is my favorite.
I shoot an AR10, 16" barrel, and easily do 1/2" group at 100 yards, and hit 5" plates at 600yrds, and best fun is 10" plates at 1,000 yards...

Consistent (last batch) & accurate
Expensive but when you calculate the cost per miss, not as bad as you originally though. They fly well out of a 300WM @ 3100fps.

Accurate when seated right
The 69 TMK performs great in my 1:9 and 1:8 twist barrels. I get the best results when it is seated out to provide a 0.020 jump with a slower powder like N140 or H4895. I doesn't perform as when limited by an AR magazine. My bolt actions don't have that problem and that is where it really shines.
