Nosler 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon (500ct)
The Nosler 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon (500ct) is a premium bullet component designed for handloaders seeking explosive terminal performance, aerodynamic consistency, and reliable cycling in .22‑caliber rifle platforms. This is strictly a bullet-only product—not factory-loaded ammunition. With 500 bullets per box, it’s ideal for high-volume varmint hunting, predator control, and precision shooting in cartridges like 223 Remington, 22‑250 Remington, and 224 Valkyrie.
Featuring a flat-base hollow-point boat-tail (FB Tipped) configuration, the 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon bullet delivers a polymer tip that improves ballistic coefficient and refines the ogive for reduced drag. The hollow cavity promotes controlled fragmentation—producing rapid expansion and devastating terminal effects on small game and varmints.
Machined to 0.224″ in diameter with an overall length near 0.900″, the 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon bullet stabilizes best in barrels with 1:12″ or faster twist rates. It carries a G1 ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.310 and a sectional density near 0.142—supporting flat trajectories, retained velocity, and reliable wind resistance at varmint ranges.
Handloaders pairing this bullet with powders like Hodgdon Benchmark, IMR 8208 XBR, or Accurate 2230 report consistent velocities, tight groupings, and dependable magazine-length feeding performance. The 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon excels in both bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles designed for rapid, accurate fire in field conditions.
This bullet component should be loaded with quality brass, primers, and powder using verified load data and safe reloading techniques. Nosler’s rigorous quality control—featuring tip-alignment inspection, jacket concentricity checks, and lot-specific weight sorting—ensures each 22 Cal 55gr FB Tipped Varmageddon bullet meets expectations for precision, terminal effectiveness, and high-volume reliability.
