Nosler Varmageddon .17 Remington Fireball ammunition (brand part no. 63100) launches a 20-grain flat-base tipped bullet to a blistering 4000 feet per second, built for shooters who burn through hundreds of rounds on a single prairie dog town. Nosler pairs a soft lead-alloy core with a copper-alloy jacket, so the bullet violently expands and fragments on impact, dumping its energy immediately rather than punching through and risking a wounded animal. The flat base design tightens group consistency for bench-rest-level accuracy at varmint ranges, and Nosler loads every round on its own premium brass. Priced for high-volume shooting, this rifle ammunition gives .17 Fireball shooters an economical way to feed a fast-shooting varmint rifle all day.
