Problem is I can almost never find Nosler ammo and when I do it is insanely expensive. Love the Long Range Accubond just cant find it consistently enough.

My family has been using Nosler since the 50’s when John and Bob were in Ashland oregon. One of my dads good friend was a gunsmith and friends with John and he reloaded for my dad back in the 50’s and 60’s until I started to in the mid 70’s! Love there bullets but can be a little hard to get unless you reload! My family has taken so much game with them I sometimes feel like I have stock in the company and to top it off I also have Nosler 48 rifles for my boys as well.

I’ve hunted/shot/loaded Nosler partitions, AB’s, and BT’s for over 35 years. Unfortunately, the last 2-3 years they became so scarce that I incorporated other bullets in my loading. Love Nosler but have been very frustrated due to no bullets available until recently there is hit and miss. Great bullets!

I have been a big fan of the Nosler Partition since I was first introduced to them around 1988, my favourite bullet by far!

I started big game hunting when I could first buy a license at the age of fourteen. I am now 70. I have never had any trouble with any bullet as long as it was considered a big game bullet. In other words I've never hunted big game with match type bullet. I've killed quite a few elk and never had a problem with any bullet unless I missed or I hit a big bone. The worst cartridge I ever used out of all the cartridges I've used was a 7mm mag. When I used it the bullets were not heavy enough for the velocity and the bullets break up if you hit a big bone leaving you with a long trek to try and finish the animal. I assume that has been corrected since then but I don't have a 7mm any longer.

I love the Accubond Long Range bullet, but I’ve had to move on to other manufacturer’s products because Nosler never has them in stock. Unfortunately when push comes to shove, dependable availability beats performance.

Maybe the perfect lineup in the bullet game. Love the partitions. Interested in trying the Etip

[@truckinglife5678]

I started running solid copper in my 28 Nosler excellent outcomes. 143 grain for deer and 166gr for elk size.

[@jasonwatkins2762]

Where are they sending all them bullets?? I sure can’t find them any more. Had to switch over to Barnes based on availability. Love deading stuff with partitions but hesitant to switch after working up new loads

[@SH-lb1nu]

Nosler is a 120 box for 7mm lol!!!!

[@MontanaWillie44]

I like my 165 AccuBonds in my 6.8 Western. But I also love the Berger 170 EOLs. Both do the job but those 170s are devastating.

[@michaelduncan2759]

I cannot seem to find Accubond for my 300 Win Mag.

[@mikehaddock9458]

E-Tips work FAN FREAKING TASTIC on Alaskan Moose! 30-06 only once have i had to shoot more than one shot and that was my fault.

[@travishat8760]

Does Nosler consider the ballistic tip, frangible? He stated it is more violent, but does it maintain its core?

[@jero1918]

Im an accubond man! Thanx

[@perryknetter8577]

Great video it was pretty blurry like out of focus

[@fjb4932]

Every company : "We're making bullets ( primers / powders ) as fas as we can. We are running 3 shifts, 24/7.

[@derekboshers5383]

You!!! tell me why they quit making failsaf bullets please?

[@GibsonTick]

I have a question for both Randy and the fine folks at Nosler. First off, i love Nosler bullets, and I've had great success hunting with Accubonds. However, I have a friend who is a very experienced hunter. One look at his trophy room is enough to impress most of us. Now, I can forgive him for not liking Nosler bullets, since we are all entitled to our own opinions. However, he insists that the majority of guides he has worked with won't even allow nosler bullets in their camps, due to "poor terminal performance". What would you say to such an individual?

[@tonyrastetter7307]

Nosler makes great bullets but can't seem to find any the last few years, can't use something that isn't available. 😢
