Sierra GameKing 30 Cal 180-Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Bullets - Box of 100$55.49
Availability: In Stock
The Sierra GameKing 30 Cal 165 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Bullets are a versatile rifle reloading component purpose-built for handloaders pursuing medium game with .30 caliber cartridges. This box of 100 bullets splits the difference between velocity and weight, making them at home in everything from the .308 Winchester to larger capacity magnum cases. If you're loading ammunition for whitetail, mule deer, or similarly-sized game across the hunting season—or running ballistic tests at the range—the 165-grain GameKing deserves a place in your reloading bench.
Sierra's famous Spitzer Boat Tail profile is engineered to deliver a flat trajectory and buck crosswinds without flinching. The shape also preserves velocity and energy downrange, which matters when your shot stretches beyond 200 yards. Loading is straightforward: precise concentricity and consistent construction mean less variance round-to-round, and that translates to tighter groups from an accurate rifle. These bullets have earned their reputation for match-grade accuracy, even in hunting rifles where conditions are never as controlled as the range.
At typical .308 Winchester velocities (around 2500 fps from a rifle), the GameKing exhibits both reliable expansion and good penetration—the hallmark of a bullet that performs across a range of real-world hunting scenarios. They're equally at home in larger magnums, provided you stay within sensible velocity limits. Handgunners using .30 caliber cartridges will also appreciate the accuracy potential these offer, especially in lever-action rifles or modern pistol platforms pushing rifle-class power.

The 165-grain GameKing works across a broad range of .30 caliber rifles with medium to large case capacities. They perform well in the .308 Winchester and larger magnum cartridges. They're also used in .30 caliber handgun platforms that chamber rifle cartridges.
Sierra recommends limiting use on elk-sized game to velocities under 3000 fps and ranges around 300 yards or less. For larger game or longer-range applications, a heavier bullet may be more appropriate.
The precise concentricity and consistent construction of GameKing bullets contribute to match-grade accuracy potential when loaded in accurate rifles. The Spitzer Boat Tail profile also reduces sensitivity to wind drift, which helps maintain accuracy at distance.
Yes. The 165-grain GameKing performs well in both rifle and handgun platforms chambering .30 caliber cartridges, including modern lever-action rifles and larger-caliber hunting pistols.
