Sierra MatchKing Rifle Bullets (500/ct) 6.5mm /.264 cal .264" 120 gr HPBT

The Sierra MatchKing Rifle Bullets (500/ct) 6.5mm /.264 cal .264" 120 gr HPBT are purpose-built for precision rifle competition, long-range hunting, and tactical applications where sub-MOA accuracy is non-negotiable. Developed by Sierra Bullets—a manufacturer trusted by competitive shooters and military precision riflemen for over six decades—these 120-grain hollow-point boat-tail projectiles deliver the ballistic consistency required for distance shooting where wind drift and bullet drop demand predictable, repeatable performance. The 500-round box provides shooters with sufficient inventory for load development, practice, and match qualification without constant restocking.

The hollow-point boat-tail design minimizes air turbulence at transonic and subsonic velocities, maintaining a stable trajectory across extended ranges where conventional round-nose or flat-base projectiles lose velocity stability. The 120-grain weight in 6.5mm/.264 caliber yields a sectional density of approximately 0.257, enabling deep penetration on medium-sized game while retaining the ballistic coefficient necessary for wind resistance in open terrain. Sierra's quality-control processes ensure case-neck tension consistency and concentricity, reducing shot-to-shot velocity variation—critical for long-range work where even 15 fps differences translate to measurable zero shift at 600+ yards.

Precision rifle competitors and tactical marksmen favor MatchKing projectiles for benchrest, PRS (Precision Rifle Series), and long-range hunting applications using cartridges such as 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, and custom 6.5 wildcat builds. Reloaders should verify powder charge and primer selection in established load data—MatchKings typically perform best with medium burn-rate powders and standard rifle primers. The 8.78-pound box weight reflects the substantial inventory advantage, making this volume an economical choice for dedicated precision shooters who process ammunition in large batches and demand consistency across hundreds of rounds.
