Nosler Match Grade 260 Remington match ammo loads the 130-grain Nosler RDF (Reduced Drag Factor) hollow point — a purpose-built projectile engineered for competitive precision rifle shooters who demand consistent ballistic performance at distance. This 260 Remington ammunition pushes the sleek RDF bullet to 2900 feet per second, generating 2427 foot-pounds of muzzle energy while maintaining a flat trajectory through a 0.615 G1 ballistic coefficient and 0.266 sectional density. Nosler hand-inspects each piece of custom brass for correct length, neck-sizes, chamfers, trues, and verifies flash hole alignment before loading with meticulously weighed powder charges. For competitors running bolt-action precision rifles chambered in 260 Remington, this is factory match ammunition that rivals handloads in consistency.
Performance at a Glance
The RDF projectile features Nosler’s optimized compound ogive and extended drag-reducing boattail — a form factor that minimizes wind drift and drops less than conventional match bullets at range. The company manufactures the smallest, most uniform meplats in any hollow point match bullet line, eliminating the need for pointing or trimming tips before load development. Nosler sources custom brass and subjects every case to dimensional inspection, then loads with boxer primers for straightforward reloading after firing. Brass cases are reloadable, non-corrosive, and suitable for precision handloading once fired.
