In the realm of precision shooting, where accuracy and performance are paramount, Sierra presents its 87 grain Spitzer bullet in .25 caliber. Originally crafted for dispatching varmints with smaller capacity cartridges, this projectile has proven itself far beyond its initial purpose. Its versatility shines through as it maintains exceptional accuracy across a wide spectrum of velocities.
The design features a spitzer profile which not only enhances aerodynamic efficiency but also ensures a flat trajectory over long distances. This makes it an excellent choice for marksmen seeking to extend their reach without sacrificing precision.
With sectional density pegged at .188, this bullet delivers optimal penetration—an essential trait whether you’re engaging small game or stepping up to medium-sized targets. The ballistic coefficients provide further insight into its capabilities: boasting values such as .293 at speeds exceeding 2800 fps down to .272 when velocity drops below 1500 fps.
This adaptability allows the shooter to employ the same round in various firearms chambered for popular calibers like the 250-3000 Savage or the venerable 257 Roberts, providing consistent results regardless of platform. Whether your mission involves eliminating pesky vermin or tackling more robust quarry, Sierra's Spitzer stands ready as a reliable partner in arms.
