Sierra 1610 Varminter .257 Caliber 87 Grain Spitzer Boat Tail Bullets, 100 Count

Sierra Part Number 1610 Varminter bullets are designed for reloaders seeking rapid expansion and effective performance on larger varmints and small game. Each .257 caliber, 87-grain bullet features a spitzer boat tail profile that supports a flat trajectory and efficient flight characteristics. The streamlined design is well suited to cartridges that benefit from a high-velocity projectile with reliable terminal expansion.
The Varminter series uses a thin copper jacket to promote rapid expansion while retaining sufficient strength for the high muzzle velocities associated with intended cartridges. A lead core provides the bullet’s primary mass, while the boat tail profile can help support consistent external ballistics. These bullets do not have a cannelure, making them suitable for handloaders who select seating depth and other loading specifications according to their equipment, components, and cartridge requirements.
Sierra 1610 bullets are intended for reloading applications and are supplied as 100 bullets per box. The .257-inch diameter and 87-grain weight make this component a practical choice for compatible .25 caliber rifles used in varmint and small-game applications. As with all reloading components, verify cartridge compatibility and consult current, reputable load data before use. Follow established handloading procedures and manufacturer recommendations for safe preparation, seating, and firing.
