Sako GameHead Bullet

[vpsalin]

Sako seems to divulge who makes which bullet they load for except for the gamehead. Does anyone know who makes the Gamehead bullet?

Thanks

it could be a sierra gamechanger bullet.

That would be the Gamehead Pro. I’m thinking maybe the Gamehead is their in-house bullet.

GAMEHEAD 140gr SP

6.5 Creedmore. 129H




I'm betting on a Sierra GameKing
Bullet is 1.261" long
Coal 2.723






44grs of unknown powder slight compressed load.
If I was to venture a guess. N560 but looks like a SSC. Never will know...

Sierra doesn't make a 123GR 308 gameking though?

The theory that Sako makes the low end bullets but not the mid-highend ones would be strange in my opinion. However they have started saying that they now produce in house the new powehead-blade bullet. It's a knock off of Barnes ttsx (or evolution of the ttsx). Knowing they make the blade bullet in-house it's possible they make the game head in-house!?

Know what I find interesting, some Sako ammo says prominently on the box "Made in Finland" while other ammo does not.

For the same generation (black box)?

 

[MiG25]

Yes, current black box.

Pulled a 180 gr 30-06 Gamehead bullet. It’s a stubby boat tail bullet. Box advertises .400 BC which doesn’t visually or by BC match any Sierra offerings.
