    NOSLER- R U going to make .264 or 6.5mm 140gr. Accubonds?

    These would appeal to those western or beanfield hunters who want a high B.C. yet also High S.D. accurate bullet. Thanks.

    .300 Dakota Please ?

    What expected velocities will you be getting from your loaded ammo using your: 165 gr bullets? 180 gr bullets? 200 gr bullets? Please mention test barrel length also. Also, I didn't see any data in the last Nosler Manual I bought. Is there now published load data for the .300 Dakota in your...

    .300 Dakota Please ?

    Still sounds good that you will make the ammo. Which Dakota manufactured brass will you be using? I have heard that Dakota gets brass from three sources: Norma: limited quantities; no longer produced Bertram: ?? Bell-MAST: ?? I don't know much about brass, but I would like to get your take...

    .300 Dakota Please ?

    Yes, would you please make custom ammo for the .300 Dakota (arguably their best-selling cartridge and chambering)? 180gr.-200gr. Partitions and accubonds. And make some good brass for it- I'd buy a bunch of both!

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    bowhuntrrl, if you read my original post, you will note that while the Federal load achieved a 66% weight retention, given the small 70 pound deer and light bone, we expected greater penetration. Here is the quote on the AR original post given the Federal 180gr. Accubond The major concern is...

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    Hi Nosler, That would be great. It was probably difficult for you to understand our concerns until you actually saw the bullets in the photo. I am glad that the one on the left is not what you would usually expect from the Accubond. Maybe there was some sort of defect or QC issue with our...

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    Please find attached three more photos, these of two of the actual Accubonds that we recovered from our deer. Bullet on left (with two pieces of schrapnel) is the one that struck the young mule deer with a THS that destroyed the pelvis but failed to go much further, resulting in a wounded...

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    Just for the record, I never stated that the Interbonds were so great. What I would like to point out again is that the 180gr. Accubond, based on our group of deer shot and the Nosler animal glue tests definitely needs improvement. In fact, I love the 180gr. Accubond for its accuracy, now, if...

    What s Your Favorite Nosler Hunting Bullet in .260?

    I would like to see a 130-140gr. NAB. You'd need a 130gr. as a min. for long range deer. Swift (Scirrocco)and Barnes (TSX) already have 130gr. offerings in the works. The 140gr. would be the min. I'd use on elk (since you mentioned hunting them). Norma and Lapua both have 156 or 158gr...

    6.5MM CT Bullet selection

    .264, 130-140gr. Accubond CT to compete with Swift and Barnes 130gr. loads. Yes. Many of my shooting buddies would like to see a .264, 130-140gr. Accubond or Accubond CT.

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    IMHO, 9.5 inches of penetration at a given a muzzle velocity (about same as impact velocity at point blank) of 3037fps is nothing to be proud of! Our tests on Alberta deer support your poor results. That would mean that anyone using your 180gr. bullets and hunting with a 300 Win. Mag (about...

    ACCUBOND PROBLEMS

    Nosler, you claim that the Accubonds were designed for any shot angle at any velocity. Your advertising further claims 60-70% weight retention. Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOSLER Joined: 23 Sep 2004 Posts: 158 Location: BEND, OR...
