So I just finished working up a load for my cousins Christianson Arms 300 WM and I was measuring the bullet ogive on the 30 cal 200G AB. Not sure what the tolerances are suppose to be, but I was seeing a +/- .005" in either direction, for an overall difference of .010" That doesnt seem to great in my opinion. Kind of makes seating bullets a royal PITA when trying to achieve consistent and repeatable measurements. Prior to these, the last few boxes of 30 cal 200g ABs I loaded for 2 other guys the tips were falling off/out and a few were shaved, and a few crumbled to dust when you touched them. Kind of expect a little better from Nosler honestly... Your thoughts? I dont shoot Noslers much anymore honestly, but the 30 cal 200g AB has always been my personal choice for 30 cal mags and what I recommend to guys. However, I'm not so sure anymore.
