Sierra MatchKing 220-Grain .30 Caliber HPBT Rifle Bullets (Sierra part no. 2240C) carry the same target-grade reputation that’s made Sierra the name shooters trust most on the line and in the field. MatchKing is Sierra’s pre-eminent target bullet classification, and every bullet in this 220-grain lot is drawn to a tight 0.0003-inch maximum jacket concentricity and held to within plus or minus 0.3 grain of weight, tolerances that keep group sizes consistent at distance. The hollow-point design uses a small meplat for a high ballistic coefficient, and the boat-tail base shape trims drag further for flatter, more predictable flight. Sold in a bulk 500-count box, it’s built for handloaders shooting serious volume at the range.
