The Sierra 2145 GameKing delivers consistent terminal performance for medium to large game hunting with its proven 165-grain Spitzer Boat Tail design. This .30 caliber bullet combines controlled expansion with deep penetration across a wide range of hunting scenarios. Sierra's GameKing line has established itself as a reliable choice for hunters who demand predictable results in the field.
What Makes This Different
The GameKing's tapered jacket construction provides controlled expansion that starts at the tip and progresses rearward, maintaining bullet integrity for maximum weight retention. Unlike standard cup-and-core designs, the GameKing features a thicker jacket base that prevents premature fragmentation. The Spitzer Boat Tail profile reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange, extending effective range compared to flat-base alternatives.Key Features
