The Nosler Varmageddon .308 Winchester 110-grain Flat Base Tipped (FBT) Polymer Tip Brass 20-round box is a high-velocity centerfire rifle cartridge engineered specifically for long-range varmint eradication, predator hunting, and high-volume pest control in .308 Win platforms. A primary friction point when deploying standard .308 Winchester rifles for varmint hunting is managing the heavy recoil and steep trajectory arcs associated with traditional 150-grain to 180-grain loads. Nosler resolves these ballistics constraints by pairing its precision-drawn reloadable brass cases with a lightweight 110-grain polymer-tipped bullet, delivering flat downrange trajectories, reduced recoil impulse, and immediate terminal fragmentation.
The primary technical advantage centers on the lightweight 110-grain flat base profile combined with an ultra-thin copper jacket and integrated polymer tip. The flat base configuration increases bearing surface engagement with the barrel rifling, ensuring symmetrical gas release at the muzzle crown for enhanced short-to-medium range accuracy. Upon target impact, the black polymer tip acts as a mechanical wedge, driving backward into the thin jacket and soft lead-alloy core to trigger instant, violent fragmentation that converts kinetic energy into explosive stopping power on small game while minimizing over-penetration and ricochet hazards.
Launching its 110-grain tipped bullet at 3,150 FPS and generating 2,423 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this Varmageddon loading provides flat flight paths and reduced holdover error at extended distances. Assembled using premium reloadable Nosler brass cases, clean-burning propellants, and non-corrosive Boxer primers, it ensures uniform chamber pressure, tight velocity tolerances, and smooth feeding across short-action bolt-action rifles and semi-automatic AR-10/MSR platforms. It is an outstanding choice for coyote management, feral hog control, and long-range varmint hunting.
