Nosler 204 Cal 40gr Ballistic Tip Varmint (250ct)

The Nosler 204 Cal 40gr Ballistic Tip Varmint (250ct) is a lightweight bullet component crafted for precision handloaders and varmint hunters who need rapid expansion and reliable accuracy in .204‑caliber rifles. Designed for cartridges such as 204 Ruger and 20 BR, this 204 Cal 40gr Ballistic Tip Varmint combines a polymer tip with a boat-tail profile to optimize trajectory, energy transfer, and performance in extended-range amateur and professional shooting applications.

Each Ballistic Tip Varmint bullet features a thin jacket mouth to initiate fast fragmentation upon target impact, supported by a carefully structured mid-jacket that preserves shot cohesion until the moment of impact. The boat-tail configuration improves aerodynamic efficiency, helping the 204 Cal 40gr maintain stability at velocities exceeding 4,200 fps. It performs best in barrels with a 1:12″ twist rate or faster, ensuring tight groupings and consistent terminal performance.

Ballistic data for the 204 Cal 40gr Ballistic Tip Varmint include a ballistic coefficient (G1) roughly 0.285 and a sectional density near 0.141. These metrics enable flat trajectories and dependable expansion on varmint-sized game such as prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and small foxes. With Nosler’s strict manufacturing standards, each 204 Cal 40gr bullet maintains uniform weight, concentricity, and base-to-ogive measurements for shot-to-shot consistency.

Reloaders benefit from the 250‑count packaging of the Ballistic Tip Varmint, which is ideal for large-session load development or field deployment. The component bullets feed reliably in bolt-action and semi-auto platforms, offering flexibility for sight-in sessions, precision practice, or pest control missions. The design ensures minimal barrel heat buildup during high-volume use.

This product is a bullet component and not loaded ammunition. It does not include brass, primers, or powder. The Nosler 204 Cal 40gr Ballistic Tip Varmint empowers experienced reloaders to craft custom match-grade varmint loads with precision, explosive expansion, and aerodynamic efficiency.
