Sierra Blitzking Rifle Bullets .25 Cal .257" 70 Gr Blkg 500/Ct

The Sierra BlitzKing .25 caliber 70 grain rifle bullet brings varmint-hunting precision to medium-range shooting. Built with Sierra's proven accuracy DNA and designed specifically for the longer-range varmint crowd, these .257" flat-base bullets deliver the explosive terminal performance you need for clean, effective kills on foxes, coyotes, prairie dogs, and similar game. The 500-count box gives you a full supply for serious handloaders focused on .25 caliber rifles.

BlitzKing bullets pair thin jackets with a proprietary compound tip to achieve two things that typically work against each other: explosive expansion on impact and match-grade accuracy downrange. The thin jacket design enhances both ballistic efficiency and expansion characteristics, while the specialized tip geometry keeps shots tight. This is the .25 caliber answer to Sierra's proven BlitzKing lineup in smaller bores—a bullet engineered for hunters who won't compromise on either accuracy or terminal effect.

These 70 grain projectiles are rated for a ballistic coefficient of .260 when fired at velocities of 3150 fps and above, with slightly lower BC values as velocity drops. They'll perform reliably across a practical varmint-hunting velocity range. If you're handloading for a .25-06 Remington, .257 Roberts, or similar cartridge and want bullets that shoot tight groups and deliver decisive results, BlitzKings are a proven option that won't force you to choose between accuracy and expansion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifles can I use these .25 caliber BlitzKings in?

Sierra's 70 grain .257" BlitzKing bullets are designed for .25 caliber rifles. Common cartridges include the .25-06 Remington, .257 Roberts, .25 Winchester Super Short Magnum (WSSM), and other .25 caliber rifle platforms. Check your rifle's specifications and consult reloading manuals for your specific cartridge to ensure proper bullet compatibility and load data.

What's the difference between BlitzKing and MatchKing bullets?

BlitzKing bullets combine the accuracy characteristics of Sierra's MatchKing design with a proprietary expanding tip for varmint hunting. MatchKing bullets are optimized for target accuracy and typically don't expand as dramatically. BlitzKings are purpose-built for varmint hunting where you need both precision and terminal expansion.

Are these bullets suitable for long-range varmint hunting?

Yes. Sierra specifically designed the .25 caliber 70 grain BlitzKing to fill a gap for longer-range varmint shooters. With a ballistic coefficient of .260 at higher velocities, these bullets maintain energy and trajectory better than lighter .25 caliber options, making them suitable for extended-range applications when loaded in appropriate cartridges.

What's included in a 500-count box?

Each box contains 500 individual .257" diameter, 70 grain Sierra BlitzKing bullets—exactly what you need to handload a full supply for your .25 caliber rifle.
