new .30 165 accubond?

[stinky]

I was looking through midway and they showed a 165gr AccuBond for .30 cal comming soon. Does anyone know how soon?? i spoke to to midway and their best guess is the end of july. i was wondering why nosler hasn't added it to their site either? and finally does anyone have these avvailable yet? I'm thinking these will make a great load for my son on our caribou trip!

I believe early summer. They should be working on it right now. Maybe Nosler will chime in soon.

pop that may be too long for me to wait so with that said, would you go with the 150 or 180's that are already available? I will be loading these for my son who has shot 165 factory ammo with no problems. These loads also have to be effective on black bear.

When the Hornady SST came out back in late 90's???? Rick Jamison killed a very nice black bear under 100 yards with the 150 Hornady SST at 2900 fps mv from a 30-06. He got complete penetration. If he did that with an SST I have no doubts that the 150 AccuBond will do much much better.
