The Sierra MatchKing 6.5 Creedmoor 123gr HPBT Bullets (Sierra part no. 1727) give 6.5 Creedmoor handloaders a lighter-for-caliber option inside the same trusted MatchKing family. Sierra builds this hollow point boat tail bullet to the same accuracy-first standard as the rest of the MatchKing line, making it a strong pick for shooters who want a slightly faster, flatter-shooting load for mid-range matches. Each box ships with 100 bullets ready for the press.

Key Specifications

• .264 caliber / 6.5mm bore diameter is sized specifically for 6.5 Creedmoor barrels.
• 123-grain bullet weight trades a little downrange energy for higher achievable velocity.
• Hollow point boat tail design pairs a small meplat with a tapered heel for reduced drag.
• Jacket concentricity held to 0.0003 inch keeps bullet-to-bullet accuracy consistent.
• Weight sorted to within plus or minus 0.3 grain supports repeatable, competition-grade handloads.
• 100-count box is sized for full load-development ladders.
• Built for target and competition accuracy rather than controlled-expansion hunting performance.
• Sold as a bare reloading component, not loaded ammunition, pairing with brass, a primer, and a powder charge you select.
• Recommended primarily for 6.5 Creedmoor target and PRS-style rifles, the same bore this bullet is sized for.
