220 Grain RN Ballistic tip??

[Alderman]

I purchased some factory seconds and am hoping to load a few for 30-06, 300 H&H, 300 Winchester Mag, and 300 Weatherby Mag.
Am I correct I can use the published data for other Nosler 220 grain bullets?
Has anybody have any input as to what the OAL should be??

IMO, it would be close to and maybe a little less than that for the 220g Partition semi-spitzer:

However, this bullet was meant for subsonic and low sonic speeds and may not hold together well on game when pushed harder.

I called Nosler. The nicely told me the 220gr RNwas for the 300 blackout. Designed to expand between 1100-700 fps.

I would not be surprised if the come apart in flight. Nosler didn't say it would. Just me speculating

Thanks for the info. Guess I won't be using these.

Thanks for the link. I might try some light loads in the 308 and 30-06 for punching paper and milk jugs.
A light loaded 308 might work okay on the Blacktail deer around here.

Trail boss will make some fun loads for those 220 BT

I've over driven Hornady interlocks in a 30.06, and taken white tail with them. They were about 200fps over. Rated up to 2600, and I was pushing them 2850-ish. If I shot a deer under 50 yards, it was a guarantee there would be two exit holes. Those were only 150's. With 220's I'd bet you'd get 2 exit holes. I'm sure they'd knock em dead
