TACKS: DRIVEN. Remington’s Premier Match series ammunition is designed to do one thing and one thing only: put bullets precisely where you want them to go. If you’ve come down with Accuracitis and intend to treat your condition with a 260 Rem rifle, then you’ve found just the 140 grain pills you need!
Remington doesn’t make the MatchKing bullet. Sierra does, and they do it by creating an flawlessly (technically drawn to a ±0.0003” max variation standard) concentric copper jacket, giving it a sleek frontal and side profile, and filling it with molten lead that hardens to form a uniformly dispersed core.
The proof is in the pudding. Here is this 0.611 G1 BC round’s performance out of a 24” test barrel:
0yds: 2,750 fps | 2,351 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 2,602 fps | 2,106 ft lbs | 4.4”
200yds: 2,460 fps | 1,881 ft lbs | 5.1”
300yds: 2,321 fps | 1,675 ft lbs | 0.0”
400yds: 2,187 fps | 1,488 ft lbs | -11.5”
500yds: 2,058 fps | 1,317 ft lbs | -30.3”
600yds: 1,933 fps | 1,162 ft lbs | -57.3”
The bullet isn’t designed for the application, but the MatchKing has precisely the effect you might imagine it should on small game. The thin-jacketed, non-expanding bullet fares far worse on larger game, for which it isn’t recommended.
