Been able to take two bucks with the 25-45 Sharps. The first was taken last week. Watched a 140 lb buck running two fork horns out of the food plot. Caught him standing broadside at 100 yards. Double lunged him with the Sierra 90 gr. JHPBT GameKing. He takes a 40 yard death sprint. Nice blood...

All ready for the season to start. Tested several loads in my AR chambered in 25-45 Sharps. Also will be using a Rem 700 SA in .257 Roberts. Used some soft sided 5 gallon jugs filled with water for testing. Water is efficient and does well on comparing similar bullets, it does not simulate...

Working up loads for a Marlin 336BL Its a Remington built Marlin. No issues, its well built and looks as good as any Marlin I've owned in the past. Only aggravation so far is the trigger pull. After the deer season is over I will break it down and polish the insides and see if it smooths out...

Me too. The lower RPM due to loading them down in velocity I guess ? The old Core-Lokt didn't seem to mind....

I've shot a boat load of deer with the 100 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip. Its probably my favorite .25 cal bullet. None of Nosler's bullets will work in the 1-14" twist of my Model 99, so I didn't bother testing them.

I've only got a few bullets on hand so I thought I would run some expansion test before ordering any new bullets. Water jugs may not be the best test median but they are cheap. I set them up at 50 yards. I loaded the rounds to around 2,200 fps. out of a Savage 99 chambered in the 250-3000. So...

A few 6.8 bullets that's been destroyed at the sander....

Awsome mushroom! Thanks for the pics.

I've got some 130 grain Speer soft points coming. I hope to get a little more speed out of the lighter bullet. I here it holds together as well.

The .338 bullet was fired from a custom 22" T/C Encore carbine barrel chambered in .33 WCF. Muzzle velocity was a tad over 2,200 fps

Update The .338 Hornady FP was taken from a four point buck shot in the rear (Texas heart shot) at a little over 100 yards. For comparison.

I'm not sure, maybe its the Micro-groove rifling ? I was hoping to get 2,500 fps along with 1 1/2" to 2" groups out of the Monoflex. :cry:

New bullets for the 30-30 Win have sparked my interest in the old-timer. The original Barnes 150 grain X-bullet with its large hollow point looks good. Wasn't impressed with the velocitiy. The bullet is long and has a much greater friction bearing surface than a convinsional lead core bullet...

Is Nosler planning on selling the RN Ballistic Tip loaded in the factory load as a component bullet ?

Does anyone know were I can find these ? There made for the European market. They would sure work good in a short action 6.5 Rem Mag.

Will Nosler be offering any bullets for the 6.8 Rem SPC ? A 100 grain Accubond or a 110 grain Ballistic Tip would sure be nice !

I can't find the NOSLER 45 gr. Solid base Hornet bullet. I've checked everywere. Are they still in production ?

I now they were designed for the 7-30 Waters at 2,700 fps. I've got a box and would like to try them in my 7mm-08 at around 2,800 fps. My max range is around 200 yards so the high ballistic coefficientcy is not needed. Is this bullet tough enough ? It will only be used on Georgia whitetails...

Is the Accubond to much bullet for the .250 Savage ? Shooting southern whitetails and needing something to open fast but not blow up. I'm hoping to get around 2,700 fps at the muzzle. I'm a little scared of the 100 gr. Ballistic tips at super close range and those tough angled shots.

I'm no Nosler expert - I have a Remington 700 Classic in 8x57. I had the barrel cut back to 22". I'm like you, I hunt small southern whitetail and I was needing a bullet that will open up quick yet still stay together for those tough angled shots. I can get over 2,700 fps and MOA accuracy...
