SIERRA BULLETS
The Sierra Matchking 195 Grain Tipped MatchKing (.308") rifle bullet is purpose-built for precision rifle competition and F-Class matches where consistency and ballistic performance matter. This is a serious reloader's projectile—engineered for shooters pushing match accuracy to its limits, not for hunting. The acetal resin tip reduces aerodynamic drag compared to conventional designs, giving you a more favorable ballistic coefficient downrange where it counts.
At 195 grains, this .30-caliber bullet fills a gap Sierra heard about repeatedly: competitors wanted a heavier option than the proven 175-grain TMK for extended-range shooting. The result is a projectile that shines in F Open competition and other precision disciplines where long-range stability and predictable flight are non-negotiable. You get 500 per box—a practical quantity for load development and match prep without breaking your component budget.
Match-grade bullets like the TMK are designed for accuracy first and terminal performance second, which is why they excel at the range but aren't suitable for hunting game. Varmint hunters will get better expansion performance from Sierra's purpose-built Hornet Blitz or Varminter lines. This 195-grain variant requires a barrel twist of 1:10" or faster to stabilize properly, so verify your rifle's twist before ordering. The ballistic coefficient varies with velocity—0.610 at 2000 fps and above, 0.595 between 1600–2000 fps, and 0.560 below 1600 fps—so you have real data for your ballistic calculator.
| Caliber | .30 / 7.62mm |
| Bullet Diameter | .308" |
| Weight | 195 grains |
| Type | Tipped MatchKing (TMK) |
| Quantity | 500 per box |
| Minimum Barrel Twist | 1:10" |
| Ballistic Coefficient (2000+ fps) | 0.610 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (1600–2000 fps) | 0.595 |
| Ballistic Coefficient (below 1600 fps) | 0.560 |
No. MatchKing and Tipped MatchKing bullets are designed for accuracy and precision rifle competition. Their construction does not provide the reliable expansion needed for ethical hunting performance. Sierra recommends their purpose-built Hornet Blitz or Varminter lines for varmint hunting instead.
The 195-grain TMK requires a barrel twist of 1:10" or faster for proper stabilization. If your rifle has a slower twist, this bullet won't perform correctly. Check your barrel specifications before purchasing.
Each box contains 500 Sierra Matchking 195-grain Tipped MatchKing bullets.
The bullet's ballistic coefficient varies by velocity range: 0.610 at 2000 fps and above, 0.595 between 1600–2000 fps, and 0.560 below 1600 fps. Use these figures when calculating trajectories or working up loads for your specific rifle velocity.
