The Sierra MatchKing 6.5mm 140 grain HPBT bullets are built for shooters who demand match-grade accuracy at distance. Engineered for competitive rifle shooting, long-range target work, and precision reloading, these 0.264-inch bullets deliver the consistency that has made MatchKing bullets a standard in competitive HighPower, Silhouette, and 1000-yard competitions. The 140-grain weight strikes a balance in medium- and high-capacity 6.5mm cartridges, giving reloaders a proven option for everything from 6.5x55mm Scandinavian sporters to modern 6.5mm platforms.
What makes MatchKing bullets stand apart is their dedication to ballistic performance and shot-to-shot consistency. The hollow point boat tail (HPBT) design minimizes drag and supports stable long-range trajectories, backed by ballistic coefficients that range from 0.521 to 0.535 depending on velocity. Whether you're loading for a 6.5 Creedmoor, Grendel, or classic Scandinavian service rifle, these bullets reward precise handloads with tight groups and predictable wind drift.
Important note: MatchKing bullets are purpose-built for target shooting and competition. They are not recommended for hunting applications due to their design, which does not provide the same reliable expansion at hunting velocities as Sierra's purpose-built hunting bullets. If you're chasing accuracy at the range or in competition, the 140-grain MatchKing delivers. If you're hunting, reach for Sierra's Tipped hunting line instead.
