Thread: Sierras new Game changer bullets

I was thinking today I might give the 6mm GameChanger a go in my .243 Win as they would probably be the best compromise between BC and weight for a 1:10” twist barrel and would certainly fly better and carry more energy than the Prohunter and Gameking. But the problem is I think they’ll be too hard for what I want to do, never really been a fan of bullets that don’t shed much weight, just personal preference. In 6mm the 100gr ProHunter and GameKing are perfect for goats and small to medium deer, perfect balance of penetration and fragmentation in my book.

But I’ll probably try the it anyway on goats, just to see what happens. Curiosity being what it is and all. Will be keen to slice one in half and have a look at the jacket and base thickness first.

I hope they stabilise in your 1:10" twist barrel - I have heard mixed reviews...

Yeah, so do I. The Sierra techs say they definitely will, which is bold but probably because they've tested a shit load of them. The stability calcs look good. Important to use the JBM one or another that allows for the length of the plastic tip.
