The Sierra GameKing .22 Cal 55gr Spitzer Boat Tail Bullet (brand part no. 1365) is a component rifle bullet designed for hunting at long range. GameKing bullets bring the ballistic advantage of match-grade bullets to hunting ammunition through a boat tail design, and the streamlined, tapered base of this 55-grain spitzer greatly reduces drag. The result is higher retained velocity, greater striking energy, a flatter trajectory, and less wind drift downrange.

Key Specifications

• Bullet weight is 55 grains, a common varmint and predator weight in .22-caliber rifle cartridges.

• The spitzer boat tail profile is built to reduce drag for flatter, longer-range trajectories.
• Sold in boxes of 100 bullets, sized for volume varmint and predator shooting.
