Sierra Tipped MatchKing (TMK) 22 Caliber 77 Grain Polymer Tip Boat Tail Bullets (.224 Diameter)$227.49
Availability: In Stock
The Sierra Tipped MatchKing (TMK) 22 caliber, 69 grain bullets are precision rifle ammunition components engineered for handloaders chasing tight groups and consistent long-range performance. Built on Sierra's legacy of match-grade accuracy, these boat-tail projectiles add a polymer tip to the proven MatchKing profile—reducing drag and improving ballistic efficiency downrange compared to traditional flat-nose match bullets. The tipped design also enhances feeding reliability in magazine-fed rifles, making them a practical choice for shooters who demand both precision and dependable function.
The 69-grain 0.224-diameter configuration delivers solid ballistic performance across typical rifle velocities. With a sectional density of 0.196, these bullets maintain stable flight characteristics and momentum through various distance windows. Ballistic coefficients range from 0.375 at velocities above 2700 fps down to 0.305 at 1700 fps and below, giving handloaders the data needed to dial in realistic drop calculations for their specific loads and conditions.
Sierra built these bullets for accuracy-focused applications—target shooting, benchrest competition, and precision rifle work where tight velocity stability and consistent bullet performance matter most. While commonly used for varmint hunting, the MatchKing design won't deliver the same explosive expansion that purpose-built hunting or varmint bullets offer at comparable velocities. If your goal is sub-MOA groups and predictable downrange behavior, the TMK line rewards careful load development and quality reloading discipline.
| Caliber | 22 |
| Bullet Weight | 69 grains |
| Diameter | 0.224 inches |
| Sectional Density | 0.196 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (2700+ fps) | 0.375 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (2700–1950 fps) | 0.365 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (1950–1700 fps) | 0.335 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (1700 fps & below) | 0.305 |
| Style | Tipped MatchKing, boat-tail |
These are 22 caliber (0.224-diameter) bullets, designed for rifles chambered in cartridges like .223 Remington, .222 Remington, 22-250, and similar centerfire 22-caliber rounds. Always verify bullet diameter compatibility with your specific reloading dies and rifle.
While often used for varmint hunting, Sierra's MatchKing and Tipped MatchKing bullets are primarily designed for accuracy and target shooting rather than hunting. Their construction won't deliver the same reliable expansion that dedicated hunting bullets provide at comparable velocities, so they're best reserved for range work and precision rifle competition.
Sierra provides multiple ballistic coefficient values to reflect real-world performance at different velocities: 0.375 above 2700 fps, 0.365 between 2700–1950 fps, 0.335 between 1950–1700 fps, and 0.305 at 1700 fps and below. Use the appropriate BC for your expected velocity when calculating trajectory and drift.
The polymer tip reduces aerodynamic drag, yielding a higher ballistic coefficient and flatter trajectory compared to open-point MatchKing bullets. The tip also promotes more reliable feeding in magazine-fed rifles, addressing a common concern with flat-nose match bullets.
