Sierra Pro-Hunter .308 170gr Flat Nose Bullets

Sierra Pro-Hunter .308 170-Grain Flat Nose Bullets

The Sierra Pro-Hunter .308 170-grain flat nose bullet represents a time-tested design that has proven itself in the field for generations. Originally introduced in 1959, this classic projectile continues to deliver reliable performance for hunters who understand the value of proven ammunition.

Design and Construction

These bullets feature Sierra's traditional flat base design combined with their proprietary PowerJacket construction. The jacket is specifically tailored to the velocity ranges typical of the .30-30 Winchester cartridge, ensuring uniform expansion and reliable penetration on game animals.

The precisely located cannelure serves a practical purpose—it positions the bullet for proper overall length, ensuring trouble-free feeding in lever-action rifles and other firearms.

Performance Characteristics

Ballistic Performance:

• Sectional Density: .256
• Ballistic Coefficient: .205 @ 2400 fps and above; .248 between 2400-1800 fps; .293 @ 1800 fps and below

Velocity Range: Designed for 2200-2600 fps muzzle velocity

Hunting Applications

The 170-grain weight performs admirably on deer-sized game and is well-suited for larger deer and black bear at closer ranges. The flat nose design and moderate velocity requirements make these bullets ideal for lever-action rifles and handgun cartridges with similar velocity profiles.

While designed specifically for the .30-30 Winchester, these bullets are effective in any .30 caliber cartridge that does not exceed 2500-2600 fps muzzle velocity.
