Nosler .300 Winchester Magnum ammunition (part no. 40038) loads a 180-grain E-Tip Lead-Free for hunters who want dependable performance in the field. Nosler is best known for the bullets serious hunters trust, and it loads those same projectiles into its factory ammunition. The lead-free copper alloy bullet is bonded in one piece rather than jacketed, so it expands into uniform petals without fragmenting or leaving a lead residue in the wound channel.

In our rifle ammunition lineup, this .300 Winchester Magnum loading is a dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
