Whether you punch paper shoot steel or use your handgun for hunting Nosler ensures you have the very finest in accuracy consistency and overall quality. Designed to expand rapidly upon impact the pure lead core is copper-alloy jacketed for maximum bullet stability and balance while further enhancing accuracy. The bullet's well-defined cannelure holds the jacket and core together and allows a tight crimp eliminating bullet movement within the case. Like our premium rifle bullets Nosler hand-inspects all Sporting Handgun bullets for quality assurance and then polishes them to a bright finish.
