Nosler has the Accubonds in these weights but why not the Ballistic tips? At the velocity the 6.8 SPC shoots it seems the BT's would have been a better fit. Any ideas why?

I have a DPMS 260 coming in a month or so so I want to get some loads ready.
On hand I have 130gr AB's and H4350 and Varget.

Ron
It will kill them as if struck by lighting. :wink:
If hunting close range, consider the 110 gr AB.

Thanks-Ron

Thanks-Ron
In the Nosler reloading book number 5 the H322 max load for a 120 BT is 28.5, Hodgen's max load for the same bullet is 26. 2.5 grain seems like an awfull lot of difference and if I use 10% less as a starting load from the Hodgen recomended max I will be below Noslers starting load. What to do...
I've shot about 3 boxes of these out of my 308 with great results. Last night I had about 150 rounds prepped with powder when I opened 2 new boxes of the Custom Comp's and I ran into this, the bullets have a dull appearence along with a slight waxy/sticky coating on them. Is this a problem? I...
