Sierra 1730 GameKing 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr SPBT Bullets 100ct

The Sierra 1730 GameKing bullets deliver exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for 6.5 Creedmoor hunters and precision shooters. These 140-grain spitzer boat tail projectiles feature Sierra's proven GameKing design, engineered for controlled expansion and deep penetration on medium to large game animals.

What Makes This Different

Sierra's GameKing construction combines a tapered jacket with a soft point design that initiates expansion reliably while maintaining structural integrity. The boat tail profile reduces drag and wind drift compared to flat-base bullets, extending effective range and improving downrange velocity retention. Sierra's manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent ballistic coefficients and uniform performance across the entire lot.

Key Features

• 140-grain weight optimized for 6.5 Creedmoor ballistics and energy transfer
• Spitzer boat tail design with 0.264" diameter and sectional density of 0.287
• Soft point construction for controlled expansion on game animals
• Ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.550 for flat trajectory
• Precision-drawn jacket ensures consistent wall thickness
• Lead core bonding prevents separation during expansion
• 100-count box provides excellent value for load development

Field performance demonstrates reliable expansion at velocities from 1,800 to 3,000 fps, making these bullets suitable for various powder charges and barrel lengths. The GameKing design maintains 60-70% weight retention while creating wound channels effective on deer, antelope, and similar-sized game. Temperature stability and lot-to-lot consistency support precision handloading for both hunting applications and long-range target work.
