« on: February 09, 2006, 10:23:12 AM »
well best iv'e found is a nosler bt 125 gr. Problem is everybodys out of em, even nosler(last i checked) Are they still making them? I like using a pointed bt bullet,(good performance) and lighter is better when you practice with your huntin loads. I'm wondering if anybody else makes a bullet like this? :D

That's where I get most of my Nosler bullets.  Factory seconds right from the factory store.  I will be in Bend 2x this year and plan on picking up a few thousand each trip.  Cheaper than the stores and shoot just as straight.  Most probs I have even been able to find have been discoloration in bullet jacket.  Doesn't make it fly any different.

  These are great bullets.  I have purchased thousands of them and they shoot great, I have compared them to the factory 1st and find no diff in performance or accuracy..  You may find something that you did not expect.  For example,  I have a bunch of .308, 180gr Accubond 2nds.  Some have white tips, some have red tips, some have orange tips, some have cannelure and most do not.  But, they all shoot the same.

  Give them a try, the price is right, and, you can't beat their price on shipping.
  That reminds me I need to get some more bullets.
