    Well there's only one way to find out. I for one would be very interested to hear how you go with them if possible.

    I've never been able to recover one of the Noslers, as they always punch straight through and even with a spade and a fair amount of excavation I've not found one.

    These ones:

    Because they are short the Noslers stabilise in a 1:12" twist. Not fantastic accuracy but good enough.
