Rifles Descriptions

308 - 168 Grain TMK - Black Hills Gold - 20 Rounds

Sierra’s MatchKing has won devoted fans and countless trophies the world over. Their match accurate target bullet exhibits better balance than a Moscow ballerina thanks to its precision jacket, which is drawn to a concentricity standard of ± 0.0003 inches. The MatchKing’s boat tail is angled to just as exacting a degree, and its weight is held to a standard of ±0.3 grains. All in all, a bullet simply doesn’t get much more uniform than a MatchKing. Sierra finally improved on the MatchKing the only way they could with the addition of a streamlined acetal resin tip. The Tipped MatchKing’s meplat cleaves through the air to produce even less drag than its predecessor, making it a must for shooters seeking the flattest attainable trajectory. Black Hills doesn’t just select the best bullets when they load their Gold line of ammunition. They also ensure every brass case, non-corrosive primer, and charge of meticulously formulated propellant is a paragon of its class, and they subject each and every Gold round to thorough hand inspection before it’s packaged.

Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294

The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
