Sierra GameKing 30 Cal 165gr HPBT Bullets (.308 Diameter) - Box of 100

The Sierra GameKing 30 Cal 165gr HPBT bullets are purpose-built for hunters who reload ammunition for medium-game hunting at distance. These .308 diameter projectiles combine a hollow point boat tail design with a slightly harder construction than Sierra's standard spitzer boat tail offerings, giving you the ballistic advantage of match-grade bullets without sacrificing the expansion you need in the field. The boat tail profile reduces drag significantly, which means higher retained velocity, flatter trajectories, and less wind deflection compared to flat-base alternatives—advantages that matter when your shot counts.

These 165-grain hollow point boat tail rounds are designed around the proven geometry of Sierra's famous MatchKing bullet, making them an excellent choice for shooters running 30 caliber magnum rifles or standard .308 Winchester loads. The hollow point won't deform in the magazine or chamber, and the bullet's construction delivers superior penetration on medium game while maintaining the inherent accuracy that Sierra's match-grade heritage ensures. Whether you're working up loads for a long-range hunt or need consistent, reliable ammunition for your reloading bench, these bullets perform across a wide range of velocities and rifle platforms.

You'll receive 100 bullets per box, ready to load into your preferred cases and primers. These are premium components, not bargain-bin projectiles—if you're willing to invest time in handloading, Sierra GameKing bullets reward that effort with performance that shows on target and in the field.
