Nosler Ballistic Tip hunting bullets in .308 caliber deliver the accuracy and terminal performance serious reloaders and hunters demand. These 168-grain spitzer bullets combine Nosler's proven design with features engineered for reliable expansion and energy transfer across a broad velocity range. Whether you're loading for whitetail at moderate range or preparing cartridges for longer shots, Ballistic Tip rounds offer the consistency and wound performance that keep you confident in your handloads.
The signature polymer tip, color-coded by caliber for easy identification, works in concert with an ultra-thin jacket mouth to initiate expansion predictably. The gradually thickening jacket wall controls how the bullet comes apart, keeping fragments together long enough to maximize energy dump while the boat-tail design reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficients downrange. The engineered solid base provides a platform for controlled mushrooming and weight retention—critical for reliable performance on game.
This 50-count box gives you what you need to develop and test loads for your .308 rifles. Nosler's manufacturing standards mean you can focus on consistent reloading practices rather than worrying about bullet-to-bullet variation. Built for hunters who take accuracy seriously and want terminal performance they can depend on in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifles and cartridges work with .308 Ballistic Tip 168-grain bullets?
These bullets are designed for rifles chambered in .308 Winchester and other .308-diameter cartridges. Always consult your rifle's manual and reloading data to confirm compatibility and safe load specifications for your specific firearm and powder combination.
Are Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets suitable for handloading?
Yes—these are component bullets sold for reloaders. You will need to perform all reloading steps yourself: sizing cases, seating primers, charging powder, and seating bullets to safe specifications using published reloading data.
What makes the polymer tip design important?
The polymer tip improves aerodynamics for flatter trajectory and extends effective range. It also initiates expansion on impact more reliably than traditional bullet designs, contributing to consistent terminal performance across the velocity spectrum.
How many rounds does a 50-count box provide?
This box contains 50 individual bullets, enough to load 50 complete cartridges (given brass, primers, and powder). Plan accordingly if you're developing loads for multiple firearms or testing different charge weights.
