The Nosler Ballistic Tip Varmint is a 55-grain, .243-caliber spitzer boat-tail bullet designed for varmint hunting and high-velocity applications. It combines a polymer ballistic tip with a streamlined boat-tail profile to promote aerodynamic consistency. The construction emphasizes controlled expansion and weight retention for reliable performance across a wide velocity range.
