If it is a Winchester load and has a red tip, then it is an AccuBond. Also if it is a Nosler bullet in 25cal 110gr then it is an AccuBond. We do not build any other bullets in 110gr. What does the box say?
The actual mathmatical formula to calculate bullet trajectory is mind numbing. I have seen it and do not recommend that you try it. The web based programs are fantastic.
The Partition gold is similar to the Partition. The Gold has the partition segment raised toward the tip and a steel cup in the back. The Partition Gold has been discontinued so it is really a mute point. I would suggest that you check out the AccuBond if the Partition is not meeting your needs.
That is obvious, but the Pro Shop and Nosler sell more than just bullets. We are constantly working on the best way to ship orders quickly and efficiantly. The logistics of processing orders and shipping them stretches beyond just the cost.
I am wondering what the green coating is? Is it from the mix of One Shot and the RCBS lube? I agree that a good tumbling after sizing should take care of the problem.
Here is what has officialy been released in the AccuBond for 2007:
6.5 cal 130gr
270 cal 130gr
35 cal 225gr
9.3 cal 250gr
This is a start. We know that we need to keep developing those AccuBonds in other calibers.
I am sorry for the long wait for a reply. I is now obvious that Nosler does view these. http://www.nosler.com/index.php?p=17
I have attached the link to the Nosler dealer locator. This should help you find a dealer in your area.
The 25 caliber 85 grain CT Balistic Silver Tip is a varmint bullet. If you stay with the CT bullets, you will have to jump up to the 115 grain bullet. I would recommend that you give the 100 grain Ballistic Tip a try for antelope.
The Shooter's Pro Shop ships to Alaska and Hawaii using USPS and all other shipments are are shipped UPS. The reason for the UPS shipping is the ease of tracking orders and the fact that USPS does not allow ammunition or chemicals to be shipped.
I agree with what everyone has said. If it is a 25-06 I would lean towards the 115gr BT for deer. I have yet to have a bad experiance with the 25-06 and the Ballistic Tip.
