I can't help but think something is missing here. I am going to guess you are talking about some sort of 6mm. You need to at least tell us what caliber. I really prefer blastomatic #4.

Which bullet again??
As far as I can see, Sierra doesn't make a 95 gr. bullet in 6mm/243 caliber.
Furthermore, the only Match Kings I see in 243 cal are the 70 gr. #1505 and the 107 gr. #1570.
(The latter requires a 1 in 8 twist barrel)

The bullet pn 1537 has a .480 bc. I called sierra and they told me it really needs a 1-8 twist. They told me to use the 100 grain starting loads and work up. I would venture to say they should fly at 3k or so max. I prefer RL 19 or H 4831.
