20rds – 6.5 PRC Winchester Match 140gr. HPBT MatchKing Ammo

Winchester Ammunition 140 Grain Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Ammo Details

Winchester loads their Match label 6.5 PRC ammunition so you can explore the terrain which lies beyond the 1,000-yard line. This competitive target ammunition features the most popular and successful competitive target bullet of all time – the Sierra MatchKing!

First things first: The MatchKing is not a hunting bullet, as it is not engineered for terminal expansion. The opening in the hollow point boat tail’s nose is only present because the bullet’s lead core was injected through it while it was still molten.

The MatchKing’s exceptional rotational stability is not solely the product of its form-fitted lead core. Each bullet’s jacket is drawn to a concentricity standard of ±0.0003” in maximum variation!

The MatchKing’s narrow meplat, flowing jacket profile and optimized boat tail all work in conjunction to raise its G7 ballistic coefficient to 0.295 (0.590 G1 BC). Expect the 140 grain HPBT to cross the 1,000-yard mark at a velocity of 1,639 fps, and to stay supersonic until just past 1,600 yards.

This ammo is loaded with top notch reloadable brass, sensitive Boxer primers and precision powder charges. Winchester advises a rate of twist between 1:9” and 1:7”.
