When I really want to hit something, I do like Sierra Bullets and their MatchKings. Now their MatchKing-X (MKX) lineup has expanded, with the introduction of a 7mm 175-grain HPBT bullet. The new bullet is available through retailers and online, and is designed with hunters in mind. The MatchKing-X series, first launched in April, builds on Sierra’s long-standing MatchKing reputation for accuracy while adding controlled expansion for improved terminal performance at lower impact velocities.

Following the recent release of the 6mm 107-grain HPBT MKX, the new 7mm 175-grain version broadens the line and offers another option for precision shooters and hunters looking for consistency and reliable performance.

“We are thrilled to announce the addition of the 7mm 175-grain MatchKing-X to our lineup,” said Sierra Bullets’ Marketing Manager Colby Adamek. “This bullet isn’t just another addition – it rounds out the MKX family with a modern, heavy-for-caliber design that is a perfect fit for the 7mm PRC and other popular 7mm cartridges. Shooters have been asking for this bullet, and we’ve poured extensive testing and refinement into making sure it delivers on every front. This result is a projectile that embodies what the MKX line stands for: match-grade accuracy, relentless consistency and devastating hunting performance at long range. This is one we’ve been waiting for, and we couldn’t be more excited to finally put it in your hands. We're confident it will quickly become the go-to choice for serious long-range hunters and precision shooters everywhere.”


Sierra Bullets’ new 7mm 175-grain HPBT MKX addition stands out as a natural match for the 7mm PRC. With its slow impact velocity expansion, the 7mm 175-grain HPBT MKX is said to excel in long-range shooting. Engineered for reliable expansion, the MKX provides match-grade accuracy in a purpose-built hunting bullet.

The MSRP is $58.99 for a 100-count box and $284.99 for the 500-count.

Other bullet offerings in the MKX lineup include:

  • 6.5MM 142 GR
  • 6MM 107 GR
  • .30 CAL 175 GR
  • .30 CAL 200 GR
  • .270 CAL 135 GR
