I have some boxes of ballistic tips but I have no knowledge of the manufacture date. I won't use them on game animals. But then bullets on my shelf are old.
I just loaded 100 partitions. The old were made by screw machine. The new ones had a label $14.07 on the box. Retail price at the time. Thus my hesitation on using my ballistic tips.
If you know these ballistic tips of yours are not the original design, they should be very good hunting bullets.
I'd rather the bullet over penetrate than not be able to enter the vitals.
Serious hunting for me demands bullets that penetrate to vitals.
I prefer classic.

I have a box of screw machined .30 cal. 180 NPT's.
Some claim those are better than current production. I think the new ones shoot just as well as those did.

I think that if you box of Ballistic Tips are100 count, then they're the old ones. I think the newer ones came in 50 count boxes. Just my thoughts but I guess you could call Nosler and ask.

NBT's of unknown vintage, IMO, would be good sighting in or practice bullets.
I'd get current mfg. NBT's on JB's sturdy bullet list or use NPT's/NAB's for BG.
Just me.

I'd never hesitate to use the old ones as long as they're of adequate weight and calibre for the game.
Put the bullet in the right spot and you'll be right.
