Nosler 243 Cal 6mm 55gr Ballistic Tip Lead Free (100ct)
The Nosler 243 Cal 6mm 55gr Ballistic Tip Lead Free (100ct) is a top-tier bullet component for handloaders requiring non-toxic performance in varmint and medium-game applications. This 0.243″ diameter, 55 gr projectile features Nosler’s Fragmenting Copper Core Technology™ and a metallic-colored polymer tip to initiate instantaneous expansion upon impact at velocities of 1 600 fps and above.
Engineered with a flat-base, spitzer profile, the bullet achieves a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.288 and a sectional density of 0.133, offering excellent accuracy, velocity retention, and terminal performance at long range. Nosler specifies a minimum 1‑10″ twist rate for optimal stabilization of this bullet in standard .243 Winchester, 6mm Remington, and 6mm Creedmoor platforms.
With an overall length (OAL) of approximately 0.950″, the Nosler 243 Cal 6mm 55gr Ballistic Tip Lead Free (100ct) feeds reliably in bolt-action and semi-automatic magazine-fed rifles. The flat base and ultra-thin copper jacket maintain structural integrity during flight and split cleanly on impact, making it ideal for prairie dogs, coyotes, foxes, and other predators.
Manufactured and packaged in the USA, each bullet undergoes strict quality inspection, including concentricity, weight tolerance, and tip alignment. The lead-free design ensures compliance with shooting venues and hunting areas that require non-magnetic, non-toxic ammunition.
The Nosler 243 Cal 6mm 55gr Ballistic Tip Lead Free (100ct) combines match-grade accuracy, decisive terminal effectiveness, and environmental-friendliness. With its high BC, flat trajectory, and 1‑10″ twist requirement, it’s an outstanding choice for varmint hunters and precision handloaders alike.
