Nosler’s Ballistic Tip Hunting ammunition in .308 Winchester (brand part no. 40063) loads a 165-grain spitzer Ballistic Tip bullet built and velocity-matched for maximum effectiveness on deer, antelope, and hogs. Nosler pairs a streamlined polymer tip with a tapered copper jacket so the bullet flies flat and true, then opens fast and consistently the instant it meets game. The polymer tip also protects the bullet’s nose from deformation in the magazine, keeping the same accurate profile shot after shot that made Ballistic Tip a benchmark hunting bullet. For .308 hunters who want a proven, accurate bullet without stepping up to a premium price tag, this rifle ammunition is built for the stand or the blind.
