Different style Accubonds?

[TNBillyEarl]

Friends, please see the pic below of two 140g Nosler Accubonds. The Factory Second (see bag under the bullets) has the green tip, a cannelure (sp?), and is a tad longer. The traditional AccuBond is on the right. What's the story on this? I can't remember where I picked these up, but the bag seems to have the correct Product #. Please advise... -B

The green tipped one looks like an E-Tip to me.

That's an E-Tip monolithic bullet.

I agree they look like E-tips, cut one open and check

Doesn't look a AccuBond to me. E-Tip..

The one on the left is definitely a E-tip.

Somehow, somewhere, by someway - they must have been placed in the wrong bag. I suspected this, but just don't know enough. Many thanks for the help.

The E-Tips do tend to shoot well, particularly with a bit of a "jump" to the rifling.

And yes, it sure looks like an E-Tip bullet.

What is easiest or best way to cut a bullet length wise?

I've just used a coarse file and then cleaned it up at the end with some fine sandpaper or emery cloth.
