Nosler accubond long range *update

[carpsniperg2]

Just talked to my buddy today and got my product price sheets. There is a lot of new stuff and they have been super busy. They are just starting to wrap up the first lots of LR accubonds right now. So in this crazy time it might be awhile before we see them sitting on shelves but they should be going out to dealers and some special people soon.

I really like the loadings that they are doing for factory ammo with the LR bullets as well.

I would love to get my hands on a box of .270 150gr

I will be giving most the paces over the next year. The 6.5 in my Grendel. The 150 270 in my wsm's. The 150 7mm in my 7mm-08's and both the 30's in a few different rifles. I look forward to seeing how they do.

The nice thing is they are made to preform at the lower velocity's at the extended ranges. Where the normal accubond needs 1800fps to still preform well the new LR only needs 1300fps.

so how about closer ranges ?

ima 0-750 yards kinda guy,do you think it would blow up too easily at like..75 yards ??

[carpsniperg2]

I think they will act more like ballistic tips at the close ranges. Which will still kill well but I don't think they will retain there weight as well at the close ranges. My guess would be maybe 60% weight retention. That is one of the things I will for sure be putting to the test.

I'm wondering how they will do at 3000 fps?

There is a one minute video on the website at 37 seconds it shows the bullet expansion at the different velocities.

[carpsniperg2]

I will give them that test for sure Dale. I thought of you when I saw they were doing a 210 loading with the 30-378. That load should be money. I think I am going to build this rifle I am putting together into a 30-378 rather then 300 rum. I don't know what the factory loads will run but with handloads I am sure a guy can get 3100fps+ out of that 210 in the 30-378. I will also run those 150's right around 3k in the 270wsm.

Yeah I watched that it's computer animated so not sure I would trust that as an idea of what they will do.

Do you have some coming soon?

[carpsniperg2]

He told me to wait about 2 weeks to put my order in as they have just started boxing them this week. He said he would do his very best to get me some into the order. The first ones off the lines are the 210 30 cals
