The Barnes Match Burner 22 Cal 69gr OTM BT bullets deliver match-grade precision in a .22 caliber package that serious competitive shooters and precision rifle builders depend on. Each box of 100 gives you the consistency needed to consistently ring steel or punch tight groups at the range, whether you're fine-tuning loads for a 22 Hornet, 22-250, or similar rimfire-class cartridge. Match Burners are engineered for shooters who understand that accuracy starts with the bullet—and that you don't need a premium price tag to get premium performance.
The 69-grain weight strikes a practical balance for varmint hunting and target work, offering a trajectory that rewards good technique without requiring magnum velocities. Barnes' boat-tail design and optimized ballistic coefficient help these bullets track true downrange, so you can trust your fundamentals and your wind calls instead of making excuses about bullet inconsistency. Whether you're handloading for a first-round hit or dialing in a new rifle, Match Burners give you one fewer variable to chase.
These are open-tip match (OTM) projectiles built to Barnes' rigorous quality standards. If you're used to chasing precision through expensive match ammo, switching to Match Burner handloads can stretch your reloading budget while maintaining—or improving—your group sizes. They've earned a loyal following among competitive shooters and serious hobbyists who refuse to compromise on accuracy but appreciate value.
