The Nosler Combined Technology Ballistic Silvertip 30 caliber 168 grain boat tail hunting bullets deliver the accuracy and terminal performance serious reloaders demand. Built on decades of Nosler's ballistic innovation, these bullets combine a aerodynamic polymer Silvertip with Winchester's Lubalox black oxide coating to reduce fouling, lower pressure, and extend barrel life—all while maintaining the precision you need for hunting and long-range shooting.
What sets the Ballistic Silvertip apart is the engineering beneath the surface. The fully-tapered jacket promotes uniform expansion and maximum energy transfer across practical hunting velocities, while the boat-tail design improves ballistic coefficient for better long-range performance. The heavily jacketed base acts as a mushroom platform, supporting reliable, controlled expansion and weight retention where it matters most—on game.
The Lubalox coating is a thin but effective oxide layer that protects the bullet jacket and reduces friction in the bore. For reloaders, this means cleaner shooting sessions and less bore maintenance between range trips. Whether you're working up loads for whitetail, elk, or precision target work, these 168-grain projectiles give you the foundation for consistent, repeatable ammunition.
Each box contains 50 bullets, ready for your reloading press. Nosler's Ballistic Silvertip remains a trusted choice among hunters and handloaders who refuse to compromise on accuracy or terminal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers and rifles are these bullets designed for?
These are 30 caliber bullets, suitable for reloading in standard 30-caliber rifle cartridges such as the .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, and other 30-caliber hunting rounds. Always verify compatibility with your specific rifle and cartridge before reloading.
Will the Lubalox coating really reduce fouling?
The Lubalox black oxide coating is a thin protective layer that reduces friction between the bullet and bore, which helps lower pressure buildup and can reduce copper fouling. This means cleaner shooting sessions and less bore scrubbing between range days.
Are these suitable for long-range hunting?
Yes. The boat-tail design and polymer Silvertip make these bullets well-suited to long-range hunting applications. The fully-tapered jacket and controlled expansion characteristics help maintain energy transfer at extended distances.
What's included in the box?
Each box contains 50 individual Ballistic Silvertip bullets ready for your reloading process. You'll need your own brass, powder, and primers to complete your handloads.
