Sierra Matchking Rifle Bullets 7Mm / .284 Cal .284" 183 Gr Hpbt Match 100/C

The Sierra Matchking 7mm 183 grain HPBT rifle bullets are match-grade projectiles engineered for precision rifle competitors and long-range shooters who demand exceptional accuracy. These .284 caliber bullets come in a box of 100 and deliver the consistency and aerodynamic performance that makes Sierra MatchKing ammunition a benchmark in competitive shooting and precision rifle applications. Built with a sleek 27 caliber elongated ogive and finished with a final meplat reduction operation—a specialized pointing process—these 7mm bullets achieve a high ballistic coefficient that translates to superior wind resistance and velocity retention downrange.

The distinctive bearing surface design incorporates a 1.5 degree angle at the ogive junction, matching the throat geometry found in precision match rifle chambers. This engineering detail ensures consistent bullet-to-bore alignment and contributes to the tight shot groups that have made MatchKing bullets the standard for range and competition use. These projectiles are purpose-built for target shooting and will reach their potential when used with quality reloading practices and appropriate rifle platforms.

It's important to note that Sierra MatchKing bullets are not recommended for hunting applications. Their design does not deliver the expansion characteristics needed for ethical game harvest. Shooters working with 7mm/.284 caliber platforms will need a barrel twist rate of 1x8" or faster to stabilize these 183 grain projectiles. If you're loading match ammunition for precision rifle competition, long-range target work, or precision shooting sports, the Sierra MatchKing delivers the performance and consistency you're looking for.
