The Sierra MatchKing 6.5 Creedmoor 120gr rifle bullet (brand part no. 1725) is Sierra’s premier target bullet, engineered around a single goal: accuracy. Sierra draws the jacket to an exacting concentricity standard of 0.0003-inch maximum variation and holds bullet weight within plus or minus 0.3 grain, tolerances that separate MatchKing from typical hunting bullets. Its hollow point design uses a very small meplat for a high ballistic coefficient, and the boat-tail shape further reduces drag for long-range consistency. Sierra recommends the MatchKing line specifically for target shooting rather than hunting. It ships 100 to a box.
