Nosler 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT Custom Competition (250ct)

The Nosler 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT Custom Competition (250ct) is a precision bullet component manufactured for handloaders seeking aerodynamic efficiency, long-range accuracy, and consistent match-grade performance in 7mm rifle platforms. This is a bullet-only product—not factory-loaded ammunition. Each box contains 250 bullets, ideal for precision shooting and load development in cartridges such as 7mm-08 Remington, 280 Ackley, and 7mm Precision Rifle Cartridge.

This 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT bullet features a hollow-point boat-tail profile with a streamlined ogive and refined meplat to minimize drag and support stable flight. The concentric copper-alloy jacket formed around a swaged lead core delivers tight weight tolerance, minimal runout, and reliable feeding—attributes that contribute to consistent sub-MOA performance.

Machined to a diameter of 0.284″ and an overall length near 1.310″, the bullet stabilizes in barrels with a 1:9″ or faster twist rate. The 7mm 168gr HPBT offers a G1 ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.505 and a sectional density around 0.256—metrics that deliver flat trajectory, retained energy, and robust wind resistance at extended ranges.

Reloaders report excellent results pairing this bullet with powders such as Hodgdon H4350, IMR 4350, or Vihtavuori N570. The 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT profile supports smooth magazine-length seating, clean feeding, and consistent velocities in both bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles tailored for precision competition and hunting.

This bullet component requires use of quality brass, primers, and powder, and must be assembled using verified load data and safe reloading practices. Nosler’s quality assurance—including weight sorting, visual inspection, and concentricity control—ensures every 284 Cal 7mm 168gr HPBT bullet meets the high standards expected by competitive and long-range shooters.
