Nosler 30 Cal 175gr RDF (100ct)

The Nosler 30 Cal 175gr RDF (100ct) is a precision bullet component crafted for handloaders seeking aerodynamic efficiency, long-range accuracy, and consistent performance in .30-caliber rifle platforms. This product is a bullet component only and is not factory-loaded ammunition. With 100 bullets per box, it’s optimized for cartridges such as 308 Winchester, 30-06 Springfield, and 300 Winchester Magnum.

Designed using Nosler’s Reduced Drag Factor (RDF) profile, this 175-grain bullet features a streamlined secant ogive, minimal meplat, and boat-tail base—all tailored to minimize drag and improve flight stability. The copper-alloy jacket is bonded concentrically around a swaged lead core to ensure uniform mass distribution, concentricity, and sub-MOA consistency.

Each bullet is manufactured to a diameter of 0.308″ with an overall length near 1.220″. It performs best in barrels with a twist rate of 1:10″ or faster. The RDF’s ballistic characteristics include a G1 BC of approximately 0.385 and a sectional density of 0.210. These properties support flat trajectories, retained velocity, and low wind drift at long distances.

Handloaders pairing this 30-caliber RDF design with powders like Hodgdon H4831SC, IMR 4350, or Reloder 15 report excellent velocity consistency and precise shot placement. Its slim profile allows for efficient seating at magazine length, making it suitable for both competition and field applications. The RDF construction helps maintain bullet integrity even under high-pressure loads.

This product is intended for experienced reloaders using quality brass, primers, and powder in accordance with published load data. Nosler’s quality control includes lot-specific sorting, jacket thickness inspection, and weight uniformity testing—ensuring each bullet performs to match-grade expectations. For handloaders who demand long-range precision, the Nosler 30 Cal 175gr RDF is a trusted solution.
