The Sierra 1727 MatchKing 123-grain bullets deliver exceptional accuracy for 6.5 Creedmoor precision shooting applications. These hollow point boat tail projectiles feature Sierra's proven MatchKing design, engineered for consistent ballistic performance in competitive and long-range shooting scenarios.
What Makes This Different
Sierra's MatchKing construction utilizes a precise hollow point design that creates uniform expansion of gases upon firing, enhancing accuracy potential. The boat tail configuration reduces drag coefficient compared to flat-base bullets, maintaining velocity retention at extended ranges. Each bullet undergoes Sierra's quality control process, ensuring weight consistency within ±0.3 grains across the production lot.
Key Features
- 123-grain hollow point boat tail design optimized for 6.5 Creedmoor cartridges
- Ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.510 (G1) for superior long-range performance
- Jacket thickness engineered for consistent expansion and accuracy
- Compatible with standard 6.5mm (.264) rifle barrels with 1:8" or faster twist rates
- Manufactured using Sierra's precision swaging process for dimensional consistency
- 100-count packaging reduces per-round cost for high-volume shooters
- Proven performance in F-Class and Precision Rifle Series competitions
These bullets perform effectively across multiple shooting disciplines, from 600-yard F-Class matches to 1,000-yard precision rifle competitions. The 123-grain weight provides optimal balance between wind resistance and retained energy in 6.5 Creedmoor chamberings. Consistent accuracy results depend on proper load development, but these bullets typically group sub-MOA in quality rifle systems with appropriate powder charges.
