[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 24087, member: 25"] [b]Nosler\'s New Bullets[/b] Long Rangers, Got the press kit from Nosler today, has some interesting new bullets. Big news might be the forementioned bonded ballistic tips, they will have white plastic tips (boxes of 50) and initially come out as follows: New AccuBond Bullets Cal. Wt. BC 270 140 .496 7mm 160 .531 .30 200 .588 .338 225 .550 .375 260 .473 They lean toward the heavier weights, might be intended for the necked-down pop-bottle type cases that many guys on this forum use or wish for [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] These new bullets use gilding metal jackets rather than pure copper, said to foul barrels less. Also have a new LR .22 match bullet in 77 grains (BC= .340) and packaging their match bullets in 100's and 250's (thought that they did that last year). .270 fans get two new bullets, a 150 grain Ballistic Silvertip from Combined Technologies and a 140 grain Partition. I have never been a fan of this caliber, seems it is an "06 set on wound" but everyone to their own choices. Interesting note that they are touting their renamed match bullets - custom competition alias J4 Competition - will have "commonality with other match bullets" so that we should be close using loads for other brands. Not sure that works from our shooting experience but maybe it will from today forward... Now we just have to find out what is coming in RED boxes. Lee Reed started something when he brought out the sexy looking plastic tipped boat-tailed bonded spitzers with his Sciroccos, now everyone wants to play that game. Stay tuned. [/QUOTE]
