The Sierra 1396 is a 95 grain 22 calibre (.224) MatchKing closed-nose hollow point boat tail, a match projectile for target shooters loading for the 223 Rem and fast-twist 22 centrefires. At 95 grains the #1396 is an unusually heavy 22 calibre bullet, built with a long 27-calibre ogive and pointed meplat for extreme-range work; it needs a very fast twist barrel to stabilise.

MatchKing jackets are drawn thin and held to very tight concentricity, with a small hollow point meplat that keeps weight and balance consistent from bullet to bullet. The closed-nose (CN) versions get a final pointing operation that closes the meplat for a higher ballistic coefficient than the standard open tip. Sierra specifies a barrel twist of 1:6.5 in or faster for this bullet. They are a target design: Sierra does not recommend MatchKings for most hunting, and on varmints they will not open as reliably as the lighter-jacketed VarmintKing and BlitzKing bullets. Sierra introduced this bullet in 2018.
