Why Hunters Choose Sierra GameKing HPBT in .243 Win
Proven GameKing design: The HPBT profile and Sierra’s precision jacket concentricity deliver tight groups and stable flight across real-world conditions.
Effective on medium game: Controlled expansion from the hollow point cavity and deep penetration from the boat-tail, cup-and-core construction help put animals down fast with responsible shot placement.
Flatter shooting, less wind drift: The streamlined boat tail and optimized ogive shape help maintain velocity and reduce wind deflection at practical hunting distances.
Consistent lot-to-lot quality: Sierra’s manufacturing standards are renowned among precision shooters—benefits you’ll notice on paper and in the field.
Two practical pack sizes: Grab a 20-round box for zeroing and a hunt, or stock up with the 200-round case (10 boxes) for season-long practice and multiple tags.

Field Performance You Can Feel
Reliable expansion window: HPBT cavity initiates upset swiftly while the GameKing jacket structure holds together for meaningful penetration on thin- to medium-skinned game.
Confidence at distance: The .243 Win’s inherently flat trajectory pairs with the GameKing’s aerodynamics for point-blank hold across typical hunting ranges and straightforward dial/hold solutions further out.
Accuracy-first pedigree: From cold-bore shot to follow-up, Sierra’s bullet uniformity supports predictable point of impact—critical when the wind flicks or the shot clock is ticking.
Ideal Use Cases
Whitetail & mule deer: Broadside and quartering shots within ethical ranges; pick your impact velocity window and verify at the range.
Pronghorn antelope: Efficient exterior ballistics for open-country holds and quick corrections.
Feral hogs & predators: Great balance of penetration and expansion; verify terminal preferences for your terrain and shot angles.
Training & zeroing: Hunt with what you practice—same recoil impulse and flight characteristics as your field loads.
Compatibility Notes
Rifles: Works in most .243 Win bolt actions and semi-autos chambered appropriately.
Twist rate: .243 rifles commonly use 1:9"–1:10" twists that stabilize 100-grain bullets well (confirm your barrel’s twist).
Zeroing tip: Many hunters prefer a 100- or 200-yard zero; confirm DOPE at 300+ yards for pronghorn or open-country hunts.

FAQ
Q: Is this load suitable for deer-sized game?
A: Yes. The 100-grain GameKing HPBT is a popular .243 Win choice for deer and pronghorn, offering reliable expansion and penetration with proper shot placement.
Q: What’s the difference between HPBT and soft point?
A: HPBT uses a hollow-point cavity and boat-tail for aerodynamics and consistent expansion, while soft points have an exposed lead tip; both are proven, but HPBT often carries a higher BC and excellent accuracy.
Q: Will this stabilize in my rifle?
A: Most 1:9"–1:10" twist .243 Win barrels stabilize 100-grain bullets well. Check your barrel markings or manual to be sure.
Q: Can I buy a full case for the season?
A: Yes—choose the 200-round case (10 × 20-rd boxes) to zero, confirm dope, and hunt with the same lot for consistency.
Q: Is this lead-free?
A: No. GameKing HPBT is a traditional lead-core bullet with a copper jacket; verify local regulations if non-lead is required.
