In the realm of firearm ballistics, precision and power are paramount. Enter the Sierra 300 Grain #8830 Jacketed Soft Point (JSP) SportsMaster—a bullet that stands as a testament to toughness and reliability. Despite its "soft point" designation, this is no ordinary projectile. Crafted with an alloy core comprising 6% antimony, 4% tin, and 90% lead, it represents the hardest bullet in Sierra's esteemed lineup.
This formidable bullet achieves its purpose through expansion only under extreme conditions when propelled at top-end velocities reaching up to 1550 feet per second. It is specifically engineered for use in robust firearms such as the strongest .45 Colt revolvers from Freedom Arms, Dan Wesson, and Ruger. Additionally compatible with single-shot T/C Contenders and .454 Casull revolvers, this JSP is your ally for tackling even the heaviest game on any handgunner's agenda.
However, it's important to note that due to its length and solid construction, this bullet cannot be chambered in Colt Single Action Army revolvers or their modern reproductions—an essential consideration for enthusiasts of classic firearm models.
Sierra introduced this remarkable component back in 1994. Since then, it has remained a steadfast choice among those who demand both performance and durability from their ammunition components.
