Description

Sierra MatchKing 6.5mm (.264 inch) 144-grain bullets (Sierra part no. 1744C) are precision reloading components sold 500 to the box, giving handloaders a boat-tail hollow point built to the tight concentricity tolerances competitive long-range shooters rely on. Made by Sierra, a bullet maker known for jacket concentricity and weight consistency that competitive and hunting reloaders build entire load recipes around, this 6.5mm (.264 inch) bullet is swaged rather than cast, producing tighter lot-to-lot consistency than cheaper cast alternatives. Reloaders load these into 6.5mm (.264 inch) brass on their own press, pairing bullet, powder charge, and primer to a specific rifle or handgun for accuracy that off-the-shelf factory ammunition can’t always match.

Key Specifications

  • 6.5mm (.264 inch) caliber, matched to standard bore and case dimensions for that chambering.
  • 144 grains bullet weight, the mass loaded into each cartridge and a core factor in trajectory and terminal performance.
  • MatchKing bullet design, a boat-tail hollow point.
  • 500 count box quantity, sized for high-volume handloaders who don’t want to reorder every range session.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the MatchKing bullet design good for? It’s a boat-tail hollow point built to the tight concentricity tolerances competitive long-range shooters rely on, making it a fit for that specific use case rather than a general-purpose bullet.

Are these bullets or loaded ammunition? These are component bullets only, meant to be seated into your own reloaded brass with a press, powder charge, and primer, not ready-to-fire cartridges.

What caliber brass do these 6.5mm (.264 inch) bullets need? They’re sized for standard 6.5mm (.264 inch) bore and case dimensions, so they’re intended for reloaders working in that chambering.
