The Nosler 39522 Ballistic Tip delivers exceptional accuracy and devastating terminal performance for varmint hunting and target shooting applications. These 22 caliber bullets feature Nosler's proven polymer tip design that drives expansion while maintaining trajectory consistency at extended ranges.
What Makes This Different
The color-coded polymer tip initiates controlled expansion at impact while the boat tail base design reduces drag for flatter trajectories. Unlike standard hollow point bullets, the ballistic tip prevents tip deformation in the magazine and ensures consistent ballistic coefficients shot after shot. The tapered jacket thickness provides rapid expansion on varmints while maintaining structural integrity through the vital zone.
Key Features
- 50-grain spitzer point configuration optimized for high-velocity cartridges
- Polymer tip color-coded for easy identification and reliable expansion
- Boat tail base design reduces drag coefficient by 12-15% over flat base bullets
- Tapered jacket construction ensures consistent 1.5x diameter expansion
- Lead alloy core delivers maximum energy transfer on impact
- Precise manufacturing tolerances maintain sub-MOA accuracy potential
- 100-count bulk packaging for serious shooters and reloaders
Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-inch groups at 100 yards when loaded to proper specifications in quality barrels. The 50-grain weight strikes the optimal balance between velocity retention and wind resistance for prairie dog hunting, crow control, and precision target work. Weather-resistant tip material maintains performance in temperature extremes from -40°F to 140°F.
