Nosler Ballistic Tip 7.62x39mm ammunition (part no. 40069) loads the 123-grain Spitzer Ballistic Tip bullet, giving AK and SKS-pattern rifle owners a genuine hunting-grade option beyond the surplus ball ammunition that dominates the cartridge’s shelf space. Nosler loads its Ballistic Tip ammunition with the same accurate, reliable bullet trusted by hunters for decades, and every bullet weight and muzzle velocity is optimized for maximum effectiveness on deer, antelope, and hogs. The polymer tip initiates immediate, controlled expansion on impact while its aerodynamic profile improves accuracy over a plain soft point. In rifle ammunition for 7.62×39 hunters, this is a proven expanding-bullet load.
