    Model 21 issues

    This really is a shame. I was planning on ditching my rifle when I finally got it back from them, but it's truly a very nice rifle and there's very little out there in a 6 Creed hunting rifle. Had I not suffered the CS experience I did with them, and had there not been an ongoing history of...

    Model 21 issues

    This has made me wonder if QC on their bullets might be lacking as well. Their rifle division has a storied history of crap QC and CS.

    Nosler Customer Service is Terrible

    Pretty much par for the course for Nosler. It really does suck that BPS and Cabelas won't allow a thorough inspection prior to buying a gun.

    Looks like Nosler's new model 21 is plagued with feeding issues. Damn shame.

    E.R. Shaw barrel 10/22

    Shaw Barrels don't get a lot of play in the 10/22 aftermarket. Mine is damn good, and the price was too.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    JD, I guess they'd have to piddle a little bit to find the sweet spot in weight/BC/impact velocity. In fact they may have already done so, and that may be why we don't have a heavy Accubond. Currently a 90 is the heaviest they make in 243. A 105ish would seem to be ideal. If they offered a...

    My Divorce From Nosler

    This was the factory 103 ELDX. It's the only load I shot today. I'd love to see Nosler make an Accubond heavy. As far as I know, nobody is making a bonded premium heavy in 243. The Creed has created a market for one.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    I had a chance to shoot today. She's a shooter to be sure. I didn't measure the group, but that's a 3/4 inch dot, so I am guessing 1/2 center to center.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    It's been comical watching the delivery dates change, then the notices that it may be weather delayed. That's where we stand now, but it's making the trek. It had to make its way through the teeth of that nasty winter storm, so I understand.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    I picked up the rifle from my FFL today. Given that I don't have any other 6 Creed hunting rifle options right now, I decided to keep it. I mounted a scope and will hopefully shoot it next weekend. I'll let you know how it works out.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    This is Nosler's site. It's rarely a good idea for manufacturers to get involved in customer complaints on forums in an official capacity. It most often turns into a full on poo flinging fest that puts them in a no-win situation. Beyond that, I presented the details completely accurately and...

    The rifle is in layover somewhere due to weather. The ammo is due to arrive tomorrow. It may be a bit before I can shoot it.

    My Divorce From Nosler

    This was entirely too easily avoidable for it to have unfolded the way it did. I don't know the exact problem, but something went wrong in the manufacturing. I don't know what kind of QC they have, but a good QC program may have trapped the error there. I am not very good with technology, but...

    My Divorce From Nosler

    The rifle was tested yesterday and gave .7s with two different factory loads. It was shipped to my FFL today. They are sending quite a bit of ammo to my home address for my troubles.
