Sierra GameKing 284 Cal. / 7mm 150 Grain .284" SBT Rifle Bullet (100)

SKU: 01697226 GameKing® bullets are designed for hunting at long range, where their extra margin of performance can make the critical difference. They feature a boat tail design to bring hunters the ballistic advantage of match bullets. The streamlined tapered base of the boat tail greatly reduces drag, which results in higher retained velocity, greater striking energy, a flatter trajectory and less wind drift than comparable flat base bullets.

For rifles chambered in 7mm cartridges, this bullet has the heavy, double-tapered Sierra® jacket for hunting. This 150 grain Spitzer Boat Tail bullet is a little heavier and thus provides a high ballistic coefficient compared to the 140 grain bullet. It's an excellent choice as a lighter bullet in any of the 7mm magnum cartridges for use at medium to long ranges. Both bullets are superbly accurate and provide excellent expansion with good penetration on medium game at ranges to 500 yards.

In handguns it's considered too tough for smaller cartridges, such as the 7mm TCU and 7mm BR. However, these bullets are seeing much use in the Remington XP-100 chambered for the 7mm-08 Remington or in similar cartridge / handgun combinations for both target shooting and hunting applications. This bullet is a good choices when driven at 2500 fps or more for medium or large game at typical handgun ranges. Using this bullet for hunting is limited to muzzle velocities achievable with only a select few cartridge and handgun combinations, but no such restrictions apply to target use. It can be used in all 7mm cartridges for target shooting.
