Thread: Nosler 25 calibre ballistic tip

Wouldn't mind hearing about the 100 Nbt though, they go 3350fps out of my rifle with a healthy dose of 2209 and sub moa but.........

It does seem likely that they use the same jacket, 25 cal doesn't have the same following that 7mm and 6.5 have, so it would keep tooling cost down.

What I found is that very few 25 projectiles perform well. They will either shoot through like a laser or fly to pieces without penetration. The 110 Accubonds are great. I got so frustrated with poor projectile performance that I phoned Greg Duley and asked about his 25/284. He told me that they had tried a bunch of projectiles and settled on the 110 Accubonds as the best. They perform very very well and I will not change. They are the projectile to use. Nosler partition type performance, with better accuracy and high and low velocity reliability. Only downside they seem hard and I can only get 3250 out of them with 2213. Maybe they will go faster with Superformance.
