Nosler 375 Cal 260gr Expansion Tip Lead Free (50ct)

Nosler 375 Cal 260gr Expansion Tip Lead Free (50ct)

The Nosler 375 Cal 260gr Expansion Tip Lead Free (50ct) is a high-quality bullet component designed for handloaders seeking ethical performance and deep penetration in .375‑caliber lead-restricted hunting zones. Featuring Nosler’s Expansion Tip monolithic copper-alloy construction with their E² Cavity™ (Energy Expansion Cavity™) system, this 260 gr projectile delivers controlled expansion and approximately 90–95% weight retention. Each box contains fifty polished, weight-sorted bullets prepared for precision seating in custom loads.

Manufactured to a .375″ diameter and featuring a sleek Spitzer boat-tail profile, the 375 Cal 260gr Expansion Tip Lead Free achieves a G1 ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.440 and a sectional density (SD) near 0.315. The E² Cavity™ directs uniform hydraulic expansion upon impact, producing effective wound channels while maintaining structural integrity—ideal for cartridges such as .375 H&H Magnum, 375 Ruger, and 375 Weatherby Magnum.

This lead-free, monolithic copper-alloy design eliminates core-jacket separation and reduces environmental concerns. With a length of about 1.650″, the bullet stabilizes well in barrels with 1:12″ twist rates or faster. Hunters report deep penetration and controlled expansion on moose, elk, bear, and other large-game species—performing reliably through thick hides and heavy bone.

The aerodynamic boat-tail profile improves downrange trajectory and wind stability, while the copper alloy ensures consistent internal pressures and feeding reliability. This bullet is well-suited for lever-action, single-shot, and bolt-action rifles commonly used in big-game hunting environments.

This is strictly a bullet component—not factory-loaded ammunition. Handloaders should consult Nosler’s official load data and reputable reloading manuals. Recommended powders include Hodgdon H‑4831SC, IMR 7828, or Reloder 22—each selected for clean burn and consistent pressure control. Precise case trimming, neck tension, seating depth, and consistent cartridge OAL are essential to ensure safe pressures and long-range accuracy.

Combining Nosler’s E² Cavity™ expansion technology, monolithic construction, and aerodynamic boat-tail form, the 375 Cal 260gr Expansion Tip Lead Free bullet component offers ethical terminal performance, deep penetration, and precision accuracy for competent handloaders in .375‑caliber applications.
