The MatchKing’s superior heft isn’t the only reason for its level and wind resistant trajectory. The hollow point boat tail’s virtually perfect jacket concentricity and form-fitted lead core give it exceptional balance; its sleek jacket profile and boat tail minimize in-flight drag. The ballistically efficient HPBT (0.362 G1 BC) can be relied on to stay supersonic until a dizzying 880 yards, which blows any standard 55gr FMJ clean out of the water.
This ammo’s match grade bullets are quite appropriately matched up with match grade brass cases, Boxer primers and propellant. A faster barrel twist of 1:6” to 1:8” is recommended to give so heavy a bullet the stability it needs to exhibit its best ballistic performance.
The MatchKing cannot expand during penetration and is not recommended for hunting medium game.
