Sierra's new offerings

[Fire Dog]

Should have reached out to me before trying the Noslers! RDF stands for Random Damn Flyer...

Absodamnlutly…!!
What can I say? I was just young and foolish…
Worst of all, I did $ + about 85pcs of Berger 180’s to get my hands on that full box of 500.
Most likely burn them fire forming… Education is often an expensive proposition and that lesson in particular.
Laid in a supply of the 180’s & 184’s to go back to when I finish the last of 500 180VLD Copperheads that have been performing well once I established seating depth and got them up to 2’8020.
Will turn the 280AI into 7-6.5PRCW once the barrel goes, have bolt, reamer & brass.
Have both AW’s & Erik C reamers, any recommendations one or the other?
Can PM/email to keep the thread from becoming a social visit…

Call them. I couldn't find what I needed last year and called and they shipped direct to me.

Good idea! Didn't know they offered retail sales direct. Thanks.

PS: Grew up on Sierra bullets when I began reloading. They always performed exceptionally well for me even their "no-frills" Pro Hunter bullets. I moved away several years ago because I could no longer get them. Their 85 BTHP in the 243 Win in particular is the best all-around performer I even tried in this caliber.

The bullets are a little higher price buying direct.

Regardless of brand, custom or factory, that's why you sort all bullets for matches. Well, if your serious about doing your best.

The 131 MK currently available is the same bullet as Blackjack sold, the New 131 bullet coming will be a Tipped bullet

My friend Ed is playing around with a 7PRC.
That 185 grain 7MM TMK looks real good.

 

[nakneker]

Thanks for sharing, the TGK 25 cal is the one I’m most interested in, that and the 20 caliber 36 grain varmint king

Good stuff. More 25 options hitting the market makes me want to burn up my 6.5/264 barrels for a reason to rebarrel

Id have to watch the video again i thought they were coming out with another non tipped MK.

Not in 25 caliber, there is a TMK and a TGK both in 25 cal.

Do the tipped match kings give Berger a run for their money in the accuracy stakes? Not seeing them on the firing line in Australia. A lot of guys have tried the 183gr 7mm, but most have given up as that bullet is an inconsistent SOB.

I quit wasting my time on the 183s. 180 Bergers & 171 Match Burners shoot great for me

I'm excited for the 7mm 185g TMK for the 7-300 Win Mag. Just need to get an estimate on the BC before I decide to try them over my tried and trued 180g ELDMs.

Looks like Sierra’s website is letting you pre order the 105 match kings and the 69 tipped varmints( blitz-kings) today.

 

[snod85]

I ordered the 69 tipped varmintkings and the 64 tipped gamekings from sierra’s website yesterday. They accepted the order, but no confirming email so maybe?

I was able to snag the very recent 69 blitzking from them a month or so ago and they measured and shot well (22br). Bet it is the same bullet, just rebranded.
