For rifles this high-velocity bullet is designed to give precision accuracy with the explosive expansion of Sierra's Varminter-style construction. Although the bullet may prove to be somewhat "hard" at Hornet velocities it can be extraordinarily accurate at these lower velocity levels.

For handguns although this bullet is of hollow point construction we cannot recommend them for hunting purposes. This bullet should be considered for ranges in excess of 125-150 yards. Also works very well as a target bullet.

The #1385 was introduced in 1984.
