Title: Nosler OUCH!!!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on July 08, 2013, 01:09:30 PM: Man they are behind and things are still crazy as heck for them. Called my buddy there today and they are not expecting to do anymore accubond long range 30 cal 210's tell April of next year! They are going to try to do a small run of the 190's in August by the sounds of it. I called to order 7 different items and all of them are out of stock. So much for those plans :yike:

Post by: arrowflinger on July 08, 2013, 01:19:31 PM: Dang, I need some of those 210.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on July 08, 2013, 01:22:39 PM: Oh yeah nothing I really had to have. I was hoping for a couple boxes of the 190 and 210 .30 cals. My rifle is still a few months out that I really plan on using them with, so it's not the end of the world. A couple of the others were just new bullets to play with as well that I didn't really need. The only one I want to find and should be able to is the 90g 6mm accubond. Other then that I will survive :chuckle:

Title: Re: Nosler OUCH!!!
Post by: Wanttohuntmore on July 13, 2013, 08:20:41 AM: Worked up a load of 165 accubonds for my dads 300wsm. Shoots decent. Always was a partition shooter in the past, figure these should work similarly with better down range punch. I'm waiting for the 175 7mm accubonds!

Post by: MuleySniper on July 13, 2013, 08:32:46 AM: I have some .30 cal 180 grain partitions and some 150 grain accubonds if anyone wants to trade for ten or twenty 210 Accubond LR let me know I'd like to try a small batch.

Post by: buckhorn2 on July 13, 2013, 09:18:52 AM: Dale I use the 180 accubonds in my 300wby and my 30-378 and they have worked good but have;nt tried anything lighter.

Carp, I know you always talk about loving your WSMs so I have a question. Do you load larger than 180gr in your 300WSM? And if so how heavy & what load?

Don't mean to jack the thread so a PM is fine also ;)
Title: Nosler OUCH!!!
Post by: MuleySniper on July 13, 2013, 12:22:29 PM: I only picked up the 150's because they were out of 165's. Nasty accurate @100 off the bench. Dropped my 2010 buck like a sack of potatoes @120. Never put them through the chrono. Probably pretty hot not sure how'd they shoot LR.
I don't shoot a ton but I'd like to try some of those 210's and see how they group LR.

Post by: bearpaw on July 13, 2013, 12:41:18 PM: Thanks for the info guys! :tup:

Carp, next time I go downtown I will check again for you, last time they were still out.
Title: Re: Nosler OUCH!!!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on July 13, 2013, 04:16:39 PM: Thanks Dale, I have looked high and low for the long range bullets with no luck. I am going to try to get some 190's if they do the limited run they are talking about. I have started getting stuff for my 30-378 build. I won't probably hunt with it this year but am wanting some 190 or 210 LR's :drool:

I run the 180 accubonds in my 300 wsm. I will try the 190 long range accubonds in my 300 wsm and 300 wm when I get my hands on them.

Post by: jay.sharkbait on July 13, 2013, 04:27:08 PM: Carpsniper....Is it ok to make non Nosler recommendations?
Title: Re: Nosler OUCH!!!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on July 13, 2013, 04:49:41 PM: Who for me? Of course.

I am in nosler's and hornadys professional programs. I still shoot just about every other bullet made. I had some bad luck and scary close calls with some barnes bullets. So that's the only bullets I won't load.

Post by: jay.sharkbait on July 16, 2013, 06:20:19 PM: I would try the Berger 230 otm hybrid.
