Sierra 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT MatchKing

The Sierra 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT MatchKing is a precision component bullet engineered for long-range performance, aerodynamic efficiency, and match-grade accuracy in .284‑inch rifles such as 7mm-08 Remington, 7mm Remington Magnum, and 7mm PRC. Featuring a hollow-point Spitzer boat-tail design and 168‑grain weight, this bullet delivers excellent flight stability, wind resistance, and terminal consistency.

Crafted with a refined Spitzer ogive, hollow-point cavity, and tapered boat-tail base, the 168gr HPBT MatchKing achieves a high G1 ballistic coefficient around 0.540–0.560. This aerodynamic profile minimizes drag and wind drift, yields flat trajectories, and maintains supersonic capability at extended distances—ideal for precision hunting, PRS competition, and long-range target shooting.

Manufactured to Sierra’s exacting component tolerances—168.0 grains weight, 0.284″ diameter, approximately 1.160″ overall length, and a sectional density near 0.254—the bullet exemplifies uniform jacket thickness, concentric hollow-point alignment, and precise boat-tail geometry. These attributes support repeatable seating behavior, reliable chamber pressures, and sub‑MOA group performance.

Optimized for twist rates between 1:9 and 1:10, the Sierra 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT MatchKing performs best at velocities from 2,800–3,000 fps. Handloaders report tight vertical dispersion, strong wind-bucking performance, and consistent expansion on medium to large game—making it a versatile choice for both tactical and hunting use.

As a component bullet, the Sierra 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT MatchKing gives shooters full control over powder selection, primer choice, and seating depth—enabling custom load development tailored for trajectory, recoil management, and terminal performance. It is not factory-loaded ammunition but a high-precision Spitzer MatchKing component designed for elite long-range shooting.
