Sierra 4681C Tipped GameKing 30Cal 180gr 500/Box
The Sierra 4681C Tipped GameKing 30-caliber 180-grain bullet is a modern hunting round designed for .308 Winchester and 30-06 Springfield shooters who demand reliable performance on big game. Introduced in 2024, these bullets address a real field problem: getting a heavy-for-caliber bullet that seats consistently and delivers the ballistic performance that longer-range hunters need. With a polymer tip and boat-tail design, each box of 500 bullets gives you the volume and quality you expect from Sierra's reputation for precision.
Jacketed lead construction keeps your barrel clean while the tipped design enhances trajectory and helps maintain velocity downrange—important when you're stretched out on a longer shot. The boat-tail profile improves flight characteristics, and Sierra engineered this load with penetration in mind. On elk, deer, or other big game, that combination of reliable seating, trajectory, and through-and-through performance is exactly what you're reloading for.
Sierra's Tipped GameKing line bridges the gap between match-grade precision and field-proven hunting reliability. At 180 grains, you're carrying the weight that makes sense in the .308 and 30-06 platforms—substantial enough for hard-hitting terminal performance without sacrificing the velocities these cartridges are known for. Buy in bulk with the 500-round box and keep your reloading bench stocked.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these bullets work in both .308 Winchester and 30-06 Springfield?
Yes. The 4681C Tipped GameKing was specifically designed to provide proper chamber fit and seating in both .308 and 30-06 platforms, addressing a common frustration with heavier bullets in these cartridges.
What's the difference between a tipped bullet and a standard lead-tip hunting bullet?
The polymer tip improves aerodynamic performance and trajectory compared to open lead tips. On the Tipped GameKing, it also contributes to more consistent ballistic performance downrange, which matters when you're stretching the distance.
Are these bullets suitable for hunting big game like elk and larger deer?
Yes. The 180-grain weight, jacket construction, and boat-tail design are engineered for the penetration and performance needed on big game hunting applications.
How many bullets are in a box?
Each box contains 500 bullets, which is a standard bulk reloading quantity that keeps your bench well-stocked for extended shooting or multiple loads.
