Description

Sierra Matchking 7mm 183gr HPBT x100 #1983

Sierra's 7mm 183 grain HPBT (#1983) will be appreciated by shooters all around the world for its accuracy and outstanding long range performance. With a sleek 27 caliber elongated ogive and a final meplat reduction operation (pointing), the ballistic coefficient is enhanced for better wind resistance and velocity retention. A unique bearing surface to ogive junction uses the same 1.5 degree angle frequently found in match rifle chamber throats to assure exact bullet to bore alignment. This isn't ready-to-fire ammo.

Note: Requires a barrel twist rate of 1x8" or faster.
