Pop quiz, hot shot. And there’s only one question:
Which bullet has been fired to win more shooting competitions than all other manufacturers’ bullets put together?
If you answered “the Sierra MatchKing,” then you already know what’s up with this 308 Win ammunition by Federal Premium. It’s accurate.
The MatchKing is a hollow point boat tail: not a bullet designed for hunting, but one which excels at keeping its momentum and dismissing the influence of cross winds. From its hyperconcentric match jacket to its evenly distributed swaged lead core to the optimized angle of its boat tail, the MatchKing is totally designed for precision. And in this instance, it’s backed by Federal’s highest-quality Gold Medal match primer and other premium components as well.
Federal captured this round’s 2,650 fps muzzle velocity with the aid of a 24” test barrel. The G7 ballistic coefficient of a .30 caliber 168 grain MatchKing is 0.224. With that information, we can provide the following 300-yard performance:
0yds: 2,650 fps | 2,620 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 2,454 fps | 2,248 ft lbs | 5.1”
200yds: 2,267 fps | 1,917 ft lbs | 6.0”
300yds: 2,087 fps | 1,626 ft lbs | 0.0”
400yds: 1,916 fps | 1,369 ft lbs | -14.0”
500yds: 1,751 fps | 1,145 ft lbs | -37.4”
600yds: 1,595 fps | 949 ft lbs | -72.3”
And hey! Why not calculate 1,000-yard performance so long as we’re at it?
