Sierra GameKing .308 Caliber 165 GR Tipped Bullets - 100 Count Box (Model 4665)

The Sierra GameKing .308 caliber 165 grain tipped bullets are a solid choice for .308 Winchester reloaders looking to build accurate, reliable ammunition. Each box contains 100 rounds of polymer-tipped boat tail projectiles engineered with a tuned ogive and optimized jacket wall thickness—features that help manage expansion and weight retention on impact. The polymer tip reduces aerodynamic drag compared to untipped designs, giving these .308 rounds a ballistic advantage at extended ranges and distance shooting.

Built around Sierra's proven GameKing platform, these 165 grain .308 bullets pair a streamlined boat tail profile with an open pocket design under the polymer tip. That open cavity accelerates lead core expansion when the bullet strikes, translating to more decisive performance than flat-nose or blunt-tip alternatives. The boat tail geometry promotes stable flight and supports tighter groups, making these bullets well-suited to precision rifle builds and distance-oriented applications where consistency matters.

Reloaders should note that these are purpose-built for accuracy and performance at range rather than traditional hunting. The 165 grain weight in .308 is a versatile middle ground—heavy enough for longer-distance work while remaining manageable in most modern bolt-action and semi-automatic platforms. Whether you're handloading for competition, distance shooting, or high-volume range work, the GameKing tipped design delivers the ballistic coefficient and expansion characteristics that precision-minded shooters expect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What .308 rifles will these bullets work in?

These .308 caliber (0.308") bullets are compatible with any modern .308 Winchester rifle—bolt-action, semi-automatic, or other platforms that chamber that cartridge. Consult your firearm's manual and your load data to confirm safe velocity ranges and powder recommendations for your specific setup.

Are these GameKing bullets good for hunting?

The GameKing tipped design emphasizes accuracy and distance performance. While they can be used for hunting, these bullets are primarily engineered for precision rifle, competition, and long-range shooting where ballistic coefficient and flight stability are the priority. For traditional hunting applications, you may want to consider Sierra's hunting-specific bullet lines.

What's included in the box?

Each box contains 100 Sierra GameKing .308 165 grain tipped bullets ready for reloading. No powder, primers, or cases are included—just the bullets themselves.

Do these stay supersonic at long range?

The polymer tip and boat tail design give these 165 grain .308 bullets a ballistic advantage that helps them maintain velocity at distance. At standard .308 Winchester velocities, they're engineered to remain supersonic even at extreme ranges like 1,000 yards, supporting consistent accuracy downrange.
