Sierra MatchKing 6.5mm 120gr Rifle Bullets (500/ct)
Sierra's legendary 120-grain MatchKing bullets for 6.5mm rifles deliver match-grade accuracy to 600 yards. High ballistic coefficient, low wind drift, and proven competition performance in BenchRest and HighPower events.
Sierra MatchKing 6.5mm 120-Grain Bullets
The resurgence of 6.5mm rifle interest has created renewed demand for precision ammunition components. Sierra's 120-grain MatchKing #1725 bullet answers that call with proven accuracy and performance across multiple shooting disciplines.
Design and Purpose
These bullets are purpose-built for competitive shooting. They excel in BenchRest and HighPower competitions out to 600 yards, particularly in medium-capacity 6.5mm cartridges. The high ballistic coefficient delivers exceptional downrange momentum and demonstrates minimal sensitivity to crosswind deflection—critical advantages in precision rifle competition.
Performance Characteristics
- Ballistic Coefficient: High BC for superior downrange energy retention
- Wind Resistance: Low drift characteristics in variable conditions
- Accuracy: Record-setting precision in competition environments
- Versatility: Proven performance in both rifle and handgun applications
Handgun silhouette shooters worldwide have adopted this bullet for its consistent performance on steel targets and other precision applications.
Important Considerations
While MatchKing bullets are renowned for accuracy, they are not recommended for hunting applications. Their design prioritizes precision over expansion. Although commonly used for varmint shooting, they do not provide the reliable explosive expansion of Sierra's purpose-designed Hornet Blitz or Varminter bullets at equivalent velocities.
Package Contents
500 bullets per container—ideal for serious competitors and precision reloaders.
