Sierra 264 Cal 6.5mm 120gr HPBT MatchKing

The Sierra 264 Cal 6.5mm 120gr HPBT MatchKing is a match-grade component bullet built for precision handloaders seeking exceptional downrange stability, aerodynamic performance, and terminal consistency in 6.5mm and .264-caliber rifles. Featuring a hollow-point Spitzer boat-tail profile with a .264‑inch diameter and 120‑grain weight, this bullet delivers superior long-range accuracy in platforms like 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, and 6.5×47 Lapua.

Equipped with a refined Spitzer ogive, hollow-point cavity, and tapered boat-tail base, the 120gr HPBT MatchKing achieves a G1 ballistic coefficient around 0.510. The high BC minimizes drag, enhances velocity retention, and flattens trajectory—delivering consistent supersonic flight and reliable precision at medium to long distances.

Manufactured to Sierra’s exacting tolerances—120.0 grains weight, 0.264″ diameter, approximately 1.045″ overall length, and a sectional density near 0.218—the bullet maintains uniform jacket thickness, concentric hollow-point geometry, and precise boat-tail alignment. These quality characteristics contribute to consistent pressure, reliable seating, and sub‑MOA accuracy in tuned handloads.

Optimized for barrels with 1:8 to 1:9 twist rates, the Sierra 264 Cal 6.5mm 120gr HPBT MatchKing performs best at velocities between 2,800 and 2,950 fps. Handloaders report tight groups, excellent wind drift management, and dependable terminal behavior—making it ideal for competition, long-range hunting, and precision applications.

As a component bullet, the Sierra 264 Cal 6.5mm 120gr HPBT MatchKing gives shooters full control over powder, primer, and seating depth—enabling customized load development focused on trajectory accuracy, recoil balance, and target performance. It is not factory-loaded ammunition but a premium Spitzer MatchKing component designed for serious precision use.
