NOS 22CAL 77GR HPBT RDF Bullets - 500 Count

The Nosler 22 caliber 77-grain HPBT RDF bullets are purpose-built match rounds for precision shooters who demand flat trajectory and minimal wind deflection. This 500-count box of .22 caliber ammunition is engineered for reloaders serious about competition accuracy, offering a modern alternative to conventional match bullets through Nosler's proprietary Reduced Drag Factor design.

What sets the RDF line apart is its meticulously optimized compound ogive paired with an extended, drag-reducing boattail profile. These design features don't just look sleek—they deliver measurably higher ballistic coefficients, which translates to bullet stability downrange and tighter velocity nodes during handloading. Whether you're testing loads at the bench or running a precision rifle string in competition, consistency matters, and Nosler engineered these projectiles to demand the least from your brass and powder while delivering the most from your rifle.

Another practical advantage: the RDF's minimal, tightly controlled meplat (hollow-point tip) means you won't spend time pointing or trimming bullets before loading. Load them as-packed and focus on what matters—developing loads and breaking records. For handloaders chasing the edge in .22 caliber rifle competition, these bullets offer a genuine performance step forward without the fuss of conventional match projectiles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What caliber rifles do these Nosler 22-caliber bullets fit?

These are .22 caliber projectiles for rifles chambered in .22-250 Remington, .220 Swift, .22 Hornet, and other .22 caliber cartridges. Verify your specific cartridge before loading.

Are the Nosler RDF 77-grain bullets suitable for long-range competition?

Yes. The RDF design—with its high ballistic coefficient and optimized ogive—is engineered specifically for precision competition shooting where flat trajectory and minimal wind drift are critical.

Do these bullets require tip pointing or trimming before loading?

No. The RDF line features a minimal, tightly controlled meplat, so the bullets are ready to load out of the box without additional preparation.

What makes the Nosler RDF different from standard match bullets?

The RDF's compound ogive and extended boattail design deliver higher ballistic coefficients, which creates flatter trajectories and less wind drift. The tight meplat tolerance also means superior consistency between rounds.
