USSF, 444 was correct. The name "Ballistic Tip" is a registered trademark of NOSLER. A plastic tip is used in the nose of the bullet, so it can have a more pointed shape as an aid in achieving a higher ballistic coeffecient. They have a thicker jacket for hunting bullets and a thinner jacket for those to be used in varmint loads, so a varmint bullet should never be used for any game larger than its intended purpose.
