The Sierra 1835 GameKing delivers exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for medium to large game hunting in 270 Winchester chamberings. This 140-grain hollow point boat tail bullet combines Sierra's proven GameKing design with precision manufacturing for consistent field results. Hunters rely on this bullet's controlled expansion and deep penetration characteristics across various game species.
What Makes This Different
The GameKing's hollow point boat tail design creates superior ballistic coefficients compared to flat base hunting bullets, maintaining velocity and energy at extended ranges. Sierra's manufacturing process ensures weight consistency within ±0.3 grains, contributing to sub-MOA accuracy potential in quality rifles. The tapered jacket construction provides controlled expansion from 1,800 fps down to 2,400 fps impact velocities, making it versatile for various hunting distances.
Key Features
- 140-grain hollow point boat tail design optimized for 270 Winchester cartridges
- Ballistic coefficient of 0.496 maintains downrange energy and reduces wind drift
- Tapered jacket construction ensures reliable expansion on medium to large game
- Weight sorted to ±0.3 grains for consistent accuracy and trajectory
- Boat tail base reduces drag for flatter shooting at hunting distances
- 100-count bulk packaging reduces per-round cost for volume reloaders
- Compatible with standard 270 Winchester chamber specifications
Field testing demonstrates effective terminal performance on deer, elk, and similar-sized game at ranges from 100 to 400 yards. The bullet maintains structural integrity through heavy bone while creating adequate wound channels for quick, ethical kills. Reloaders report consistent accuracy results when paired with appropriate powder charges and seating depths for their specific rifles.
