Nosler's 6.5mm 140-grain Ballistic Tip hunting bullets deliver the accuracy and terminal performance serious reloaders demand. Built for hunters who push their rifles hard across varied distances, these boat-tail bullets combine a color-coded polymer tip with a gradually thickening jacket wall designed to expand reliably at both high and low velocities. Whether you're loading for long-range prairie shots or closer timber work, the 140-grain in .264" diameter gives you a proven platform for consistent, lethal results downrange.
The engineering here reflects Nosler's decades of hunting bullet development. The polymer tip is aerodynamically optimized for flat trajectory and wind resistance, while the ultra-thin jacket mouth initiates rapid expansion on game-sized targets. The progressively thicker jacket walls work to control expansion and retain weight where it matters most—transferring maximum energy to the animal. A solid base with boat-tail configuration rounds out the design, providing the stability and ballistic coefficient serious reloaders want when handloading for distance.
Each box contains 50 bullets, ready to load into your brass. These are not match-grade varmint rounds; they're hunting-caliber projectiles built for elk, mule deer, whitetail, and similar game where controlled expansion and penetration are the goal. Nosler's consistent quality means you can focus on your load development without worrying about bullet-to-bullet variation throwing your accuracy off. If you're already invested in 6.5mm reloading dies and brass, these bullets slot directly into proven hunting loads.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers and rifles will these bullets work with?
These .264" diameter, 140-grain Nosler Ballistic Tips are designed for 6.5mm rifle cartridges. Verify compatibility with your specific rifle and cartridge choice before loading—consult your reloading manual and rifle manufacturer's specifications.
Can I load these for both long-range hunting and closer distances?
Yes. The gradually thickening jacket and polymer tip design is engineered to expand reliably across a wide velocity range, making these bullets suitable for both extended-distance shots and closer encounters with game.
What's included in the box?
Each box contains 50 individual 6.5mm 140-grain Ballistic Tip bullets, ready for handloading into prepared brass casings.
How do these compare to match-grade target bullets?
These are hunting-focused bullets prioritizing terminal performance and expansion on game rather than extreme precision. They deliver Nosler's quality and consistency, but are engineered for reliable expansion and penetration rather than benchrest accuracy.
