Introduction to High Precision Shooting
Introducing the Sierra Bullets .30 Cal 200 gr HPBT Match (100 count) - 2231, a premier choice for shooters worldwide who demand the utmost in precision and long-range performance. Engineered with meticulous attention to detail, these bullets are designed to help shooters achieve new levels of accuracy in competitive and recreational shooting.
Advanced Aerodynamic Design for Superior Performance
The design of the .30 Cal 200 gr HPBT Match bullet incorporates advanced aerodynamic features that set it apart in the world of precision shooting:
- Elongated Ogive: The bullet features a sophisticated 27 caliber elongated ogive that enhances its ballistic efficiency.
- Meplat Reducing Operation (Pointing): This process optimizes the bullet's tip, significantly improving the ballistic coefficient for superior wind resistance and velocity retention.
- Optimal Bullet-to-Bore Alignment: Each bullet boasts a unique bearing surface to ogive junction with a 1.5-degree angle, mirroring the design found in many match rifle chamber throats. This precise alignment is critical for achieving unmatched long-range accuracy.
Technical Specifications for Optimal Performance
To ensure these bullets perform to their highest potential, they require specific technical conditions:
- Barrel Twist Rate: A twist rate of 1 in 9 inches or faster is necessary to stabilize the bullet effectively, ensuring it performs optimally for precision targeting.
- Ballistic Coefficients and Velocity Ranges:
- .715 at 2000 fps and above
- .695 between 1720 and 2000 fps
- .660 at 1720 fps and below
These specifications help shooters maximize the performance of the bullets under various shooting conditions.
Specialized Use and Applications
While the Sierra .30 Cal 200 gr HPBT Match bullets are celebrated for their record-setting accuracy, they are not typically recommended for most hunting applications due to their specialized design:
- Varmint Hunting: Although suitable for varmint hunting, these bullets do not provide the same reliable explosive expansion at equivalent velocities as Sierra's lighter jacketed Hornet, Blitz, or Varminter bullets.
- Match Shooting: Primarily designed for precision and match shooting, these bullets are the preferred choice among competitive marksmen who value accuracy over terminal ballistics.

Since their introduction in January 2018, the Sierra .30 Cal 200 gr HPBT Match bullets have rapidly become a cornerstone in the shooting community, known for their reliability and precision. Their continued success in competitive and recreational shooting cements their legacy as a top choice for serious shooters.
