Bend, Ore. – October 31, 2012 – Nosler, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of their new line of AccuBond® Long Range bullets. Developed through a combination of bullet manufacturing techniques that are unique to Nosler, the design of the AccuBond®-LR allows for the highest B.C. possible in a bullet of the same caliber and weight. Designed with an optimum performance window ranging from 3,200fps to 1,300fps, the unique tapered jacket geometry and proprietary bonding process of the AccuBond®-LR allow it to expand rapidly for effective energy transfer and significant tissue damage while retaining sufficient weight to ensure deep penetration into the vitals. The AccuBond® bonding process allows the AccuBond®-LR to perform reliably on game throughout the entire velocity range, eliminating the problem of being “too close” often encountered with other high-B.C. bullets. The high-performance boat tail, long ogive, and polymer tip combine to make the AccuBond®-LR the sleekest, flattest- shooting, bonded, hunting bullet ever created. The ogive of the AccuBond®-LR is designed to provide excellent accuracy in a wide variety of firearms without the necessity of being loaded close to or in contact with the lands. The new AccuBond®-LR will be packaged in 100 count boxes, and will initially be available in the following calibers and weights.

Yep, read about them awhile ago. All there is left to do, is wait to get them in hand. I'm really looking forward to the 175 7mm.

I'm waiting for them to show up in the 338 and 375 calibers. All of them will offer a solid alternative to the Bergers as a hunting bullet though. The Bergers work well in the hands of a good marksman, but they don't do well when somebody puts one into the shoulder blade of an elk. The Accubonds should be a huge improvement. :tup:

I would like to see a offering in .375, it would be a great bullet for the .375 Ultra. I would also like to see any Accubond in .458!

.730 BC for the .30cal 210 grainer sounds VERY optimistic

Some of your dreams "york and hammer" might be in the works :tup:

interested to hear some more bc info on these, like if they are what they say from the factory or?
would be interested in shooting the 175 7mm accubond i am planning to run the 180 bergers out of a 7-300win so those may give me some more velocity and a great hunting bullet

Definitely excited for the 175, for my STW. It would replace my partition load.
