SIERRA BULLETS
The Sierra 6.5mm 140-grain Tipped GameKing is a purpose-built hunting bullet designed for the modern generation of 6.5 cartridges, especially those with 1-8 twist rates that can really stabilize it. If you're reloading for popular rounds like 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or similar speedier 6.5s, this is the bullet Sierra designed with you in mind. The polymer tip enhances expansion on impact while the thick jacket controls penetration, making it a capable performer on game ranging from whitetail up through elk and bear. This is the real-world versatility modern hunters are after—one round for multiple applications in a single season.
The 140-grain weight sits in that sweet spot for 6.5 caliber hunting. It carries enough mass for deep penetration and energy retention on larger game, yet remains aerodynamic enough for the flatter trajectories these newer cartridges are known for. The sectional density of 0.287 helps it drive straight through, resisting deflection on angled shots—something that matters when you're in the field and the animal isn't standing broadside.
This box contains 500 bullets, enough for a serious reloading session or an entire season of hunting loads. Whether you're a precision handloader fine-tuning loads for a new rifle or you've been at the bench for years, Sierra's quality and consistency keep velocity spreads tight and groups tight. Just remember: this bullet demands a 1-8 twist rate or faster. Slower twists won't stabilize it properly, and an unstable bullet downrange is a dangerous waste of time and ammo.
| Caliber | 6.5mm / .264 |
| Weight | 140 grains |
| Sectional Density | 0.287 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (2115 fps and above) | 0.563 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (1640–2115 fps) | 0.531 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (1640 fps and below) | 0.466 |
| Minimum Barrel Twist Rate | 1-8 or faster |
| Quantity | 500 count |
You'll need a 1-8 twist or faster. Slower twist rates won't stabilize the 140-grain Tipped GameKing properly, which can cause keyholing and dangerous accuracy loss downrange.
Yes. The 140-grain weight and thick jacket design give you the penetration and energy needed for elk, along with the expansion control for quick, ethical kills. Sierra specifically notes this bullet is suitable for elk-sized game.
This is a 500-count box, giving you plenty of inventory for a full reloading session or an entire hunting season of handloaded ammunition.
The Tipped GameKing was designed for newer 6.5 cartridges that can take advantage of 1-8 twist barrels. This includes popular rounds like 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.5 PRC, which have become standard in modern hunting rifles.
