The RDF line was designed from the ground up by Nosler’s world-class team of engineers with the goal of delivering exceptionally high BCs that result in the flattest trajectory and least wind drift possible. Several key design factors contribute to the RDF’s game-changing performance. Nosler’s meticulously optimized compound ogive, which bridges traditional tangent and secant bullet shapes, is insensitive to seating depth, allowing handloaders to seat bullets to magazine length with no loss of accuracy due to bullet jump. Also lending itself to the bullet’s sleek form factor is a long, drag reducing boat-tail, making the product optimal for long range efficiency. Read more
