Hi, bought these, but will not use them, so best let them go. Looking for £85 posted for 500!
The pictures above show an example of what to expect from the 30cal 175gr heads.
As you can see, Sierra have very high standards for appearance of their projectiles but these “seconds” look better than most other brands factory packaged heads in our opinion.
These ship in a plain cardboard box with a bag of 500 heads inside.
Secondly, MatchKing® and Tipped MatchKing® bullets are not recommended for most hunting applications. Although, MatchKing® and Tipped MatchKing® bullets are commonly used for varmint hunting, their design will not provide the same reliable explosive expansion at equivalent velocities in varmints. However. their lightly jacketed Hornet, Blitz or Varminter counterparts will.
