    The edge with a the 300 gen II will give the 300 rum a run for its money, and the barrel will last a hell of a lot longer!

    5x 7mm bullets WHY WHY WHY?!?!
    Thats 5x less volume about to be produced, 5x more chance of shortages, and 5x the pain in the arse shorting loads

    BLAH!!

    Currently shooting the 140gr AB/BT @2820 fps and have good performance out of the AB's sub 300 yards - mainly used on Sambar though.

    When they arrive in the country (hopefully before I get back) I'll definitely be interested in trying the 150gr in my 7/08 20" tube as a one load for all, wonder what speeds I could squeeze with R17.

    Released end of first quarter in the states next year, so they have them in March, -we can shoot them soon after that!

    Im sure Nosler are aware it would be unwise to introduce a premium line of projectiles for long range Hunting/Shooting with exaggerated BCs. The very first guy to shoot/test them at range would discover the deception and the information would go global in about 3 days.

    They got the BC spot on for the 300g 338 cal Accubond (G1 .720) so lets see what happens.

    Re: New Nosler Accubond lineup for Long Range shooting

    Does the 338 really need a bonded bullet?

    Id say a bonded 338 cal projectile would be useful in the states and other countries where humans are IN the food chain rather than at the top of it, but im sure we could live without one here.

    The gen 2 Hybrid 338cal 300g Berger projectile is a heck of a good harvester for most of our NZ game.

    New Nosler Accubond lineup for Long Range shooting

    Personally I'd like to go hunting in Africa and Alaska one day. So having my 'normal' load for 338 as a bonded bullet that could handle those situations would be cool.

    See how much they cost though
    If my work annoys me, I cull them
