Nosler Ballistic Tip Hunting Bullets - 6.5mm (.264), 120 GR, Spitzer, 50 Count

The Nosler Ballistic Tip Hunting 6.5mm (.264) 120 grain rifle bullets deliver the accuracy and controlled expansion serious handloaders demand. Built with a polymer tip color-coded by caliber and a boat-tail design, these spitzer bullets are engineered for consistent long-range performance across a wide velocity range. Whether you're developing loads for a 6.5 Creedmoor, PRC, or similar cartridge, the Ballistic Tip combines aerodynamic efficiency with reliable terminal performance for hunting applications.

The heart of the Ballistic Tip design is its ultra-thin jacket mouth that initiates rapid, violent expansion on impact—regardless of whether you're shooting at close range or distance. Below that, a gradually thickening jacket wall helps the bullet maintain structural integrity through the expansion process, maximizing energy transfer to the target while retaining adequate weight for deep penetration. The ballistically-engineered solid base provides a platform for large-diameter mushroom formation and works in concert with the boat-tail profile to reduce drag and improve BC for extended-range shooting.

Nosler's quality control and match-grade accuracy standards make these bullets a top choice for reloaders who want to build precision hunting ammo without guesswork. The 50-count box format makes it easy to load a full batch of cartridges or test new loads before committing to a larger purchase. If you're working up handloads for 6.5mm hunting rifles, these bullets deserve a place on your bench.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets suitable for long-range hunting?

Yes. The boat-tail design, ballistically-engineered solid base, and polymer tip work together to improve ballistic coefficient and aerodynamics for extended-range performance. The controlled expansion characteristics support reliable terminal performance at distance.

What cartridges can I reload with 6.5mm 120 grain Ballistic Tips?

These .264" bullets are suitable for 6.5mm cartridges such as the 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, and other standard 6.5mm rifle rounds. Always consult your reloading manual for your specific cartridge and rifle combination to establish safe load data.

How do Ballistic Tip bullets perform at different velocities?

The ultra-thin jacket mouth and gradually thickening jacket wall are designed to initiate expansion reliably at both high and low velocity impacts. The solid base helps maintain bullet integrity across the velocity scale, though you should always follow published load data for your specific rifle and cartridge combination.

What's included in a box of Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets?

Each box contains 50 loose bullets ready for reloading. Nosler does not include brass, primers, or powder; you'll need to source those separately according to your load recipe.
