When it comes to precision and performance, the Sierra GameKing series stands as a testament to superior ballistic engineering. Designed specifically for rifles chambered in 7mm cartridges, this bullet boasts a heavy double-tapered jacket that excels in hunting scenarios.
The 150 grain Sierra GameKing #1913 Spitzer Boat Tail bullet offers an elevated ballistic coefficient compared to its lighter counterparts. This quality makes it an exceptional choice for medium to long-range shooting with any of the 7mm magnum cartridges. Its accuracy is matched by its ability to expand efficiently while maintaining penetration on medium game at distances up to 500 yards.
Though primarily designed for rifle use, in handguns such as the Remington XP-100 chambered for the 7mm-08 Remington, these bullets show their versatility. They are considered robust enough when fired at velocities of 2500 fps or more, making them suitable for both target practice and hunting larger game within typical handgun ranges.
Notably introduced in 1987, these bullets have stood the test of time thanks to their reliability across various applications. With sectional density measured at .266 and impressive ballistic coefficients—ranging from .436 above speeds of 2500 fps down through .410 below speeds of 2000 fps—they deliver consistent performance shot after shot.
This ammunition remains unrestricted for target use across all compatible firearms—a hallmark feature that ensures every shooter can experience its excellence without limitation.
