Nosler Custom Competiton

[SJB358]

With that kind of accuracy I'm wondering how they would perform on antelope and coues deer at 300 to 600 Yards?

I am not an expert on this, but Bill ran the 168's through some gallon filled milk jugs at 300 yards with no expansion. Bullet hole in and out. Not sure if they are a thicker jacket or what, but I'd stick with the BT for hunting purposes.

I have heard similar reports and also reports of great expansion and drt game.

It seems that their is a camp that loves to use them and another camp that reports nothing but failure. Funny how that mimics hunting bullets.

Talk about threading a needle though. Geez, the accuracy displayed with these bullets, is something to write about.

I did run them through water filled milk jugs at 300 and was surprised. I saw no reaction what so ever. I was shooting sitting, which at that time was very hard for me. I had a good hold everything felt good when the rifle went off, and no reaction. I tried three more shots , one of those into a different jug, all shots with same results. I rode out in the 4 wheeler, and found that out of 4 shots 3 had connected, but with no expansion. Just slid right through. with water dripping out of the jug. I felt better about my shooting but would have liked the instant gratification. I should try them real close and see what happens.

I've put several sub quarter MOA groups on paper out to 600 yards with my 6.5 Creedmoor and the 140 grain Custom Competition. It is a very good bullet. I also use them in my Garands and 308 AR, but those aren't match rifles.
