The Barnes Match Burners 30162 delivers exceptional accuracy for competitive shooters demanding consistent performance from their .22 caliber loads. These 69-grain boat tail bullets feature Barnes' proven copper-zinc alloy construction that maintains dimensional stability shot after shot.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional lead core bullets, Match Burners utilize a solid copper-zinc construction that eliminates core separation and weight variance issues. The boat tail design reduces drag coefficient by approximately 15% compared to flat base bullets, extending effective range and improving wind deflection resistance. Each bullet undergoes precision manufacturing to achieve weight tolerances within ±0.3 grains.
Key Features
- 69-grain boat tail design optimized for .22 caliber cartridges
- Solid copper-zinc alloy construction eliminates lead core separation
- Boat tail profile reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficient
- Consistent weight tolerance within ±0.3 grains for precision loading
- Compatible with standard .224" diameter rifle barrels
- 100-count bulk packaging for competitive shooters
- Precision-machined profile maintains concentricity standards
Match Burners excel in precision rifle competitions where sub-MOA accuracy determines placement. The boat tail configuration maintains stability at extended ranges, making these bullets effective for 600-yard matches and beyond. Temperature stability remains consistent across seasonal conditions, while the solid construction resists deformation during magazine feeding in semi-automatic platforms.
