Product Information

GameKing Bullets are designed for hunting at long range, where their extra margin of performance can make the critical difference. GameKing bullets feature a boat tail design to bring hunters the ballistic advantage normally found with match target bullets. The streamlined tapered base of the boat tail greatly reduces drag, which results in higher retained velocity, greater striking energy, a flatter trajectory and less wind drift than comparable flat base bullets. This bullet is devastating on medium game and is better suited at long ranges than the similar Pro-Hunter flat base.

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

I recently had my savage 12 .243 accurized by Hill Country Rifles and after testing different bullets and loads I finally found what I was looking for. All I can say is WOW! These bullets loaded with 7828 were giving me .3 inch groups in 5 shot groups and almost 1 holers in 3 shot groups at 100 yards. My hats off to Sierra GK,s

I have loaded these bullets for 20 years. They claimed two son's first whitetails, instant drops. 5 shot groups, from a Remington Model 7, at 100 meters, .78 inch. Every time. My third son shot 3 antelope, (doe tags) from 200, to 280 yards, (ranged with a Bushnell rangefinder). None took a step. I have a thousand on hand, so I don't run out in my lifetime.

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

I have been using these bullets for over 3 years now. In my Savage Model 11 in .243, the first deer I shot dropped in his tracks (neck shot). Spun him around and he was done. The whole going in was about 1". Following year I got both a buck and a doe opening day. One shot to the doe- through the lungs, perfect shot. She was running at the time and ran over the hill 20 yards and died out of site. The buck was with her - he was dead after the first shot (behind the shoulder, lung and heart) but turned around right after the shot and ran 10 yards. I shot a 2nd time (he was a 10 pointer), but didn't need to as he crumbled up. This past year I got a nice broadside shot on a doe and had her come down 8-10 yards from point-of-impact (and right under my stand!) I really like the performance of these bullets (I have shot range-certified 200 yard shots on the bullseye) and I have found that IMR4064, Varget and IMR4895 work very well.

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

I started using this bullet early this year in my Savage. I have been highly impressed with the performance I had been seeing at the range, shooting sub MOA. This last weekend I used this bullet to harvest a whitetail deer at 155 yards. This is one hard hitting well designed bullet. The deer was DRT and the entrance hole was the size of a pencil, but the exit hole was close to 1 inches. I do believe I have just found my go to bullet in this caliber.

By AJ

from SW Florida, FL

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

Sierra is always the first bullet I will reload for a new rifle and never changes. I recently received a 50+ yr old Rem 700 sporter in .243 that my Uncle told me only had been shot a few times. I loaded some of these with a slow burning powder. First tests were minute of target groups. So I floated the barrel bedded the recoil lug, played with the trigger. Next test were better head spaced, seated .005 off the lands, pushed to the max with Win 780 I can get five of these through one inch ragged holes at a hundred. I would say anybody would have a very hard time finding a better bullet for hunting that is as consistent as these. I havent shot anything with these yet but they will perform as expected.

First time I ever tried Game Kings in any rifle, but Im hooked. Shot 4 deer this season with my 243 Mossberg rifle, none inside 203 yards. All dropped in there tracks with neck shots. On paper at 100 yards it groups 0.511 inches with H3350.

By J

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

This round is very accurate, I loaded some for my uncle's Remington 700 BDL 243 Winchester. I have taken 7 deer with that rifle and load and was impressed. I am not a fan of the 243 or 6mm because it wounds a lot of deer than killing them. But if you pick your shot it will kill them. I shot a decent 10 point and it ran a little over 50 yards. I shoot a few more bucks and does and I never had one drop but a very accurate round.

By Dan

from Murdock, NE

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

I tried to load this round over some H450 (I don't think it is available anymore) in a Sako Forrester (243 Winchester). All powder weights used performed poorly (4" groups at 100 yards). With deer season a week away, I quickly loaded this round over IMR4350 and got a 1.5" group at 100 yards. First shot at an 8-point Nebraska buck at 75 yards through the lungs exited with a 1" exit hole. I didn't know that at the time. The buck ran 50-yards and stopped. Now at 50-yards I shot again and a couple of seconds later, the deer went down. He was dead with the first round but neither he nor I knew it. Found the second round under the skin on the off-side shoulder. The lead/jacket had separated. Recovered weight of copper and lead at that location was 55 grains. I wish the lead/jacket had not separated on the second round but considering the distance, my guess is that is to be expected. I'll use this bullet again.

By JOHN

from CHESTER, VA

Comments about Sierra GameKing Bullets 243 Caliber, 6mm (243 Diameter) 100 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Box of 100:

This bullet out of my Rem.700 .243 has consistently shot .5" groups at 100 yards over IMR 4064 powder. At about 2660 fps, it puts a hurtin' on deer and any smaller game. I have never needed more than one shot with these bullets, even after some less than perfect shots. Accurate and hard-hitting, what else do you need?
