Sierra 7.62mm 30 Cal 200gr HPBT MatchKing

The Sierra 7.62mm 30 Cal 200gr HPBT MatchKing is a precision component bullet built for long-range shooters and handloaders seeking elite accuracy, aerodynamic superiority, and reliable terminal performance in .30-caliber rifles. Featuring a hollow-point Spitzer boat-tail profile, this .308‑inch, 200‑grain bullet delivers match-grade consistency and flight stability—boasting a G1 ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.715.

Designed with a refined Spitzer ogive, hollow-point cavity, and tapered boat-tail base, the 200gr HPBT MatchKing achieves superior drag reduction and wind resistance, supporting sustained supersonic flight and remarkably flat trajectories. This high BC applies to cartridges like .308 Winchester, 7.62×51 NATO, 30-06 Springfield, and long-range 30 Creedmoor variants.

Manufactured to Sierra’s precise component tolerances—200.0 grains weight, 0.308″ diameter, approximately 1.150″ overall length, and a sectional density near 0.310—the bullet features uniform jacket thickness, concentric hollow-point geometry, and accurate boat-tail alignment. These standards ensure repeatable seating, consistent chamber pressures, and sub‑MOA grouping in precision handloads.

Optimized for barrels with twist rates between 1:10 and 1:12 and velocities ranging from 2,600 to 2,900 fps, the 200gr HPBT MatchKing offers exceptional wind resistance and elevation retention. Shooters report outstanding vertical consistency, reliable terminal performance on medium and large game, and dependable accuracy past 1,200 yards.

As a component bullet, the Sierra 7.62mm 30 Cal 200gr HPBT MatchKing provides handloaders full control over powder selection, primer choice, and seating depth—enabling precise load development for trajectory optimization, recoil management, and terminal effect. It is not factory-loaded ammunition, but a high-performance Spitzer MatchKing component crafted for elite, long-range .30-caliber applications.
