Nosler E-Tip .223 Remington 55-grain rifle ammunition (brand part no. 40150) pairs a lead-free hunting bullet with Nosler premium brass for shooters who need a lead-free load without giving up terminal performance. Nosler builds the E-Tip as a boat-tail bullet with a streamlined polymer tip, engineered to meet lead-free hunting regulations in states like California while still delivering stopping power that rivals traditional lead-core bullets. The bullet’s monolithic copper-alloy construction holds together across a wide range of impact velocities, so it performs whether the shot is close in brush or stretched out across a clearing. Varmint and predator hunters running a .223 rifle get a controlled-expansion option that meets regulatory requirements without a real-world performance trade-off.
