A Ballistic tip/SST bullet weighing either 150 or 180grs for European .30caliber rifles .311 I'd buy 300 of them right offin the bat if somebody offered them.

We have been begging Nosler for over a year to produce an Accubond in 6.5 mm (.264 cal.) in anywhere from a 120 to 140 gr weight.  Nothing so far, but someone was trying to start a rumor on another forum about a 6.5 Accubond coming out later in 2006 that would weigh less than 140 gr.  Hope it's true and not just another 6.5 fan wishing out loud....

If you're gonna beg, make it count

Nosler's official reloading forums.  http://www.noslerreloading.com/phpbb2/

I have already started the whining for .311 Accubonds and Partitions.

From Hornady:
Re-introduce the 275gr round-nose .35, and 220gr Interlock in 8mm.
From Nosler:
Partition in 220-225gr in 8mm
That would be a useful start...
Cheers...

That is where I/we have been begging.  On multiple threads!   But thanks for letting others know. :agree:

Check out the Speer 150 and 180 gr. .311 bullets, part numbers 2217 & 2223.  these are what I use in my 7.65x53mm Argentine Mauser.  I just wish Barnes would come up with a 165 gr. TSX in .311 caliber.  Lawdog
