Sierra 1710 .264 Caliber 100 Grain Hollow Point Varminter Bullets, 100 Count

Sierra Varminter Bullets are designed for rapid expansion and effective performance on larger varmints and small game. The Sierra 1710 features a .264-inch diameter, 100-grain hollow point design intended to deliver reliable expansion when loaded in suitable 6.5mm cartridges. Its thin copper jacket promotes rapid upset while maintaining enough strength for the high muzzle velocities associated with the cartridges for which these bullets are intended.
The hollow point profile is optimized for varmint applications, where quick energy transfer and controlled bullet performance are important. A lead core and copper jacket provide the construction needed for consistent reloading results, while the flat-base configuration supports straightforward bullet seating and reliable alignment in compatible cases. These bullets do not include a cannelure, making them suitable for handloaders who prefer a smooth jacket profile and select their own seating and crimping practices.
Sierra Varminter bullets are available in several profiles, including hollow point, spitzer pointed flat base, and semi-pointed designs. The 1710 model is a 6.5mm reloading bullet with a sectional density of .264 and is recommended for varmint use. Sierra notes that Hornet bullets are designed to expand reliably in the 2,500 to 2,800 feet-per-second velocity range, although they may be loaded in cartridges producing muzzle velocities up to 3,500 feet per second when appropriate. Always consult a current reloading manual and follow published load data for your specific firearm, cartridge, powder, and components. Each box contains 100 Sierra 1710 bullets.
