I would be happy if they would produce some .308 200 grain Accubonds Seconds :wink:

+1 on the 200AB 2nds. I'm too cheap to buy firsts and I'm not that hard up for these to pay the extra $$ for firsts.
 
I'm pretty happy to see the 140 grn AB in 6.5mm with a .509 BC.
I've moved over more to the 7mm's for hunting and can't say I need anything there. The 160AB is pretty mean too.

Nosler needs to make a 120 grn AB or Etip would give my 257 wby a bit more bite.

Or a 300 grn AB in .338, I'd say heavier like 325-340grn and get that BC up to .85 or .9, but then we'd need faster twist.

While we are dreaming bout big Accubonds, how bout a .408 AccuBond in the 350-450grn range with a bc starting with 1!

I can think of a fewplaces i'd love to hunt elk with that....... That would end the SMK LR hunting saga effective as soon as we had a couple good field reports.

.277 140 gr. E tip or 150 gr. AB
.284 120 gr. AB or E tip
.338 225 gr. E tip.

Preasure rings on all E tips couldn't hurt.

Alot of votes for the 7mm 120gr AB.
I could drive that about 3900 out of my STW.

A 7mm 120 gr AB would be a hot item for Nosler for sure!

I think it was a mistake for Nosler to discontinue the .458 300 grain partitions.
That was the best 300 grain .45/70 bullet going.There are a lot of people that shoot .45/70's.
Also, a limited run of .405win 350 grain partitions would be nice.Especially with the revival of the old round. Lyman even offers a bullet mould for it,and T/C offers a barrel.
 
Here's what it would look like with a 400 yard zero:

A__S,

Your STW would shoot as flat as road kill! :lol:

Thanks JD.
It would be lots of fun! :grin:

Point blank to 500 yds! I guess so. :lol:

Forget grooves on the E-tip. Instead come out with a true drive-band design like GS Custom uses on its HV bullets for the E-tip. Otherwise all we reloaders are going to have is version A, B, C...etc. of the TSX. Drive Bands probably wouldn't be a bad thing for Nosler's Solids either.

I'd like to see:

300 gr. .338 AB

250 gr. .338 E-tip

275 gr. .338 Partition semi-spitzer.

Otherwise Nosler has the bases pretty well covered
