[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 2546463, member: 11853"] I buy,shoot and hunt with Nosler blems all the time.I have never had an issue with those.I bought some of the boxed over run bullets and found quite a few tarnished bullets unlike what I see in the bagged untarnished seconds.I too noticed the grade C Accubonds.They would be great for range use but I'd be a little skeptical for hunting use.I had some of the Accubonds that some of the tips were failling off.If you have several cartridges in the magazine when you fired the rifle,the recoil slams the cartridges forward in the magazine and sometimes would break the tips off.Even though the tips were broken,it really didn't affect the accuracy too much,but it could affect the way the bullet performs on game.Without the plastic tip,the bullet will act like a wide tipped hollow point bullet and would expand quickly upon impact.This might be the reason some people have called them Accubombs.The worse seconds I have purchased came from Midway.They were Hornady and Remington seconds.I never could hit a 2'x2' target with the Remingtons and the Hornady had horribly crooked tips.They were defiantly rejects,I would have been ashamed to sell them.
