The Sierra MatchKing 25 caliber 131 grain hollow point boat tail bullets deliver exceptional accuracy for competitive shooters and precision rifle enthusiasts. These match-grade projectiles feature Sierra's proven MatchKing design optimized for consistent ballistic performance across extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
Sierra MatchKing bullets incorporate a precision-formed hollow point that creates optimal aerodynamic properties without compromising structural integrity. The boat tail design reduces drag coefficient by approximately 15% compared to flat-base bullets of similar weight. Each bullet undergoes rigorous quality control testing to maintain weight tolerances within ±0.3 grains, ensuring shot-to-shot consistency that competitive shooters demand.
Key Features
- 131 grain weight optimized for .25 caliber cartridges including .257 Roberts and .25-06 Remington
- Hollow point boat tail (HPBT) configuration maximizes ballistic coefficient
- Match-grade construction with precision-drawn jackets for uniform wall thickness
- Lead core swaged to exact specifications for consistent weight distribution
- Boat tail angle engineered to reduce base drag and extend effective range
- 500-count bulk packaging reduces cost per round for high-volume shooters
- Compatible with standard reloading equipment and powder charges
These bullets excel in competitive rifle matches where precision matters most, delivering sub-MOA groups when paired with quality brass and appropriate powder charges. The 131 grain weight provides excellent stability in standard twist rates while maintaining flat trajectory characteristics essential for long-range accuracy. Match directors and precision rifle competitors rely on MatchKing bullets for their proven track record in demanding shooting conditions.
