308 match king?
I have heard that there is a factory ammo that will have the same point of impact as federal 168gr. match king boat tail hollow points. Does anybody know what factory ammo this is? Thanks!

Not myself, but you could maybe try comparing the BC of various Mfg's
of .308win ammo on there websites, Remington, Blackhills, winchester, Etc to find what matches close to what you are looking for.
If I understood your question correctly. [:)]

With the same bullets or a hunting type bullet? There is lots of factory ammo loaded with the Sierra matchking bullet most notably Federal Match ammo. Black Hills, Winchester,etc. all have their versions of this type ammo..........As far as point of impact goes it usually depends on the gun.Some will hit pretty close to the same point with different loads and some change dramatically depending on variations in barrels/chambers,etc..............[8D] 0 -
federal supreme match is loaded with that bullet.
if you wish to maintain the same POI,..you must match the muzzel velocity of the ammo you are trying to duplicate, as well as match the BC and shape of the bullet (the best way would be to use the same bullet). this can be done by matching the powder charge with the same powder,..or matching the velocity with the appropriate charge of another powder to correspond to the same pressure. That would of course necessitate you knowing the type and charge weight of the federal gold medal powder charge,..and Federal will likely be slow to release that info.
Go over to www.accuratereloading.com and do a search on the gold medal ammo,..there was a thread a week or so ago about the powder in the gold medal ammo,..and a few members seemed to be knowledgeable as to it's type and charge weight.
why chase the game when the bullet can get em from here?....
