Jack, the TMK 308 is available in 195, 175, 168, and 155 grain weights. Wouldn’t it make sense to start at the top and work down? In other words, if you can get the 195 to shoot well in your rifle, why not have the extra insurance of more mass on quartering shots? According to Nathan’s book, the jackets on the MatchKing and GameKing were the same. But it was published before the TGK was introduced. Now Sierra have the 165 and 180 TGK options. Their website says, “Optimal jacket wall thickness controls expansion and retains weight.” Perhaps they redesigned the jacket.
