When your only objective is accuracy, you can’t ask for much better than the bullet that has been fired to win more competitions than all other manufacturers’ bullets combined. That’s the MatchKing, Sierra’s match-grade hollow point boat tail which Federal Premium expertly loads in this 223 Rem ammunition.

No part of a MatchKing is designed to enhance any aspect of performance other than accuracy. The projectile combines virtually flawless jacket concentricity, a perfectly balanced solid lead core, and sleek jacket geometry which gracefully tapers off to a boat tail in order to minimize frontal air resistance and optimize gyroscopic stability.

The massive 77 grain MatchKing attains a G1 0.372/G7 0.188 ballistic coefficient. If you were to set your sights at 400 yards, you could anticipate a trajectory which doesn’t rise higher than 14” – as well as velocity which won’t become subsonic until nearly 900 yards.

A couple notes on this ammo’s performance. First, the MatchKing is not a hunting bullet. It won’t treat its target gently, but it won’t expand upon bursting into soft tissue. Second, although so heavy a bullet excels at retaining its momentum and overcoming wind deflection, you do want a faster barrel twist to accommodate its extra mass. A 1:6”, 1:7” or 1:8” rate of twist is appropriate for 77 grains.

This ammunition is loaded with Federal’s highest-quality Gold Medal Boxer primers, clean-burning propellant and reloadable brass cases.
