Product Information

For rifles chambered in 6mm cartridges, the #1530 85 grain hollow point boat tail bullet has proven to be highly effective on medium game, such as deer and antelope, and it is outstanding in this application. It is one of the best all-around bullets for rifles chambered in 6mm Remington or 243 Winchester.  It is one of the most recommended bullets for varmints such as prairie dogs, groundhogs, coyotes, to medium game such as deer and antelope.  Shooters using any rifle in the entire range of 6mm cartridges will find this to be an excellent bullet. This bullet shoots like a MatchKing and expands like a hunting bullet.

 

In handguns, the 85 grain #1530 Hollow Point Boat Tail bullet is nearly ideal for all shooting applications. In cartridges from the 6mm BR up to the larger wildcats chambered in the Remington XP-100 and other strong single-shot handguns, this may be the best single bullet. When used with smaller-capacity cases at close range it would be suitable for varmints. This is a fairly "hard" bullet when fired from a handgun but a good choice for most applications and conditions.

This is not loaded ammunition.

Excellent on Mule Deer

By Darrell N. on Jul 21, 2023
My Daughter and Wife hunt Mule Deer with a rifle chambered in .243 Winchester. They hunted for years with Sierra's 100-grain BTSP GK (#1560) but on a few occasions didn't get the penetration we wanted. After talking with a Sierra representative we learned this 85-grain pill was designed with a thicker jacket and would likely perform better . . . and it did. Golf ball-sized exits every time and wow these are accurate in the Remington 788. You wouldn't think a lighter bullet would penetrate better than a heavier one, but they do. This is not a high-BC long-range bullet but at normal hunting ranges, under 400 yards, these 85-grain BTHP Game Kings are really excellent.

Great Product
