The Sierra MatchKing Bullets, .30 Caliber, 169 gr, 500 (Sierra part no. 2269C) is a target and competition bullet built to an extremely tight 0.0003-inch jacket concentricity tolerance, with a small hollow-point meplat that keeps ballistic coefficient high and repeatable. Sierra does not recommend MatchKing bullets for most hunting applications. Packed 500, it gives .30 Caliber handloaders a consistent, confirmed-spec component for loading their own ammunition rather than relying on a factory load.
