What I want for 2017...........

I would really like a .338 180gn E-Tip. Based on my experience, I think there is merit to shooting lighter/faster when shooting a mono. Penetration remains adequate due to retained weight, but the extra speed enhances how far they open (it seems). If you could whip some of those together and send them to me I'll happily try them in a 338-06 and a 338 Fed. :wink:
 
To add, the above post is based on shooting deer, elk, hog and plains game with a mix of the 185 TTSX at ~2730 FPS and 160 TTSX at ~3050 FPS. If you could match the BC of the .338 180 AB (as measured by Brian Litz) with an all copper bullet that would really be a killing machine. I would like to see it engineered to open reasonably wide down to 1800ish with it fully opened in the 2200 range. If it sheds a petal or two at 3k+, so be it.
 
.284/175 grain NAB That white tip bullet would be a deep digging unit. Great BC good SD. Sounds like winner to me.

I would buy these.

...a heavy (220+gr.), high B.C. (0.500+) .323 hunting bullet...
YES! I see I missed the 8 mike mike party back on the first page. I'd love a 220-230 gr .323" AB. An elk/moose hammer that could reach out there.

Every forum thread on the net that discusses 8mm Rem Mag, 325 WSM, or some 8mm wildcat has at least a couple of people mention that they thought about it but there just aren't any high BC hunting bullets available. People don't buy the rifles because of the very limited bullet selection. Manufacturers don't make more bullets because people don't buy the rifles. Build it and they will come. It's a small market, but there is a market.

A "32 Nosler" to load it in would be a dream come true.
In the meantime, I'll feed 'em to my 8mm Remington Magnum.
 
I'm with PRM & Idaho. A bullet that will work under the velocity spectrum of the 338 Mag craze.
A simple 200gr BT, or a 160 mono would be sweeeeeet !!

358 215-235 gr E-tip
458 300-350 gr PT
277 120 gr E-tip....and just produce all the bullets you have on the books already!
 
Saw this on another forum, a Nosler prototype tipped 123 gr bullet for the 7.62x39, might make a few of you happy.

400gr Partition for the 45-70

It would make many others bullets obsolete!

And Nosler, could you please start making some brass in 7WSM, "Please"? (y)
