For hunters operating in California, Arizona condor zones, or any jurisdiction requiring non-lead projectiles, the Nosler E-Tip 7mm-08 Remington delivers controlled expansion without compromise. This 140-grain polymer-tip load exits the muzzle at 2850 feet per second and carries 2525 foot-pounds of energy downrange — performance built on a monolithic copper-alloy core that sheds less than 5% of its original mass through bone and tissue. The 7mm-08 Remington chambering pairs moderate recoil with flat trajectory out to 300 yards, making this load a practical choice for whitetail, mule deer, and hogs in lead-restricted areas.
Performance at a Glance
Nosler engineers the E-Tip projectile from a patent-pending copper alloy that resists barrel fouling while maintaining consistent velocities across temperature swings. The OD-green polymer tip prevents deformation during magazine cycling and initiates expansion on contact with soft tissue — the Energy Expansion Cavity behind the tip ensures uniform petal formation without fragmenting the shank. Nosler loads each round in reloadable brass with non-corrosive Boxer primers, inspected and hand-packaged at the factory in Bend, Oregon.
