Sierra Matchking Rifle Bullets (500/Ct) .30 Cal .308" 150 Gr Hpbt$277.99
Availability: In Stock
The Sierra Matchking 155-grain .308 rifle bullet is purpose-built for competitive shooters and precision rifle enthusiasts who demand match-grade accuracy. Loaded in convenient 500-count boxes, these .30 caliber projectiles represent decades of Sierra's commitment to repeatability and ballistic consistency—the foundation of sub-MOA performance at distance. Whether you're fine-tuning loads for F-class competition, benchrest matches, or long-range target work, the Matchking delivers the concentricity and weight uniformity that separate hand-loaders who chase groups from those who settle for close enough.
Sierra engineered the Matchking around a hollow-point design with an exceptionally small meplat paired with a boat-tail profile. This combination maximizes ballistic coefficient while maintaining the structural integrity needed for consistent expansion and velocity stability downrange. The thin-jacket construction is drawn to a concentricity tolerance of 0.0003 inches maximum—measurably tighter than standard production bullets—and each projectile is weight-sorted to within ±0.3 grain. That obsessive attention to uniformity is why competitive shooters worldwide trust Matchkings to produce the kind of repeatable, record-setting accuracy that wins competitions.
A critical note for hunters: while these bullets have earned their reputation on the range, Sierra does not recommend Matchking bullets for most hunting applications. Their design prioritizes ballistic precision over expansion characteristics. If you're loading for field use, explore Sierra's hunting-specific bullet lines instead. But if your goal is tight groups, verified velocities, and the confidence that comes from ammunition built to match-grade standards, the 155-grain Matchking in .308 is hard to beat.
| Caliber | .30 caliber (.308") |
| Bullet Weight | 155 grains |
| Style | Hollow Point Boat Tail (HPBT) |
| Count | 500 bullets per box |
| Jacket Concentricity Tolerance | 0.0003 inches maximum |
| Weight Tolerance | ±0.3 grain |
The Sierra Matchking is engineered specifically for accuracy-driven applications: competitive target shooting, benchrest matches, and precision rifle competition. Its tight tolerances and uniform weight distribution prioritize consistent downrange performance over hunting considerations.
No. Sierra explicitly does not recommend Matchking bullets for most hunting applications. Their design prioritizes ballistic consistency rather than expansion and energy transfer in game. Choose Sierra's hunting-specific bullet lines if you're loading ammunition for field use.
Jacket concentricity—the alignment of the jacket around the core—directly affects how consistently a bullet flies. Sierra's 0.0003-inch maximum variation tolerance is significantly tighter than standard production, which translates to smaller shot groups and more predictable ballistic performance at distance.
Each box contains 500 bullets, offering an efficient quantity for hand-loaders developing loads or competitive shooters preparing for matches.
