Nosler CC .30 190 gn?

[jet_lagged]

Has anybody tried the Nosler CC .30 cal 190 grains and derived a Bc?

I can't find any details on their website and the 2010 catalog omits the data for that (new?)weight.

since all of the NCC bullets look and fly just like a SMK I would guess the BC would be like a 190gn SMK.so I will say the BC is .506 the same as the SMK.but I am just guessing.

I thought the 190SMK BC was 530?

Regardless I want to hear how they shoot as it looks like a great choice for my 300win.

I am sorry I looked back to check and the BC is 524.

Well, I got my hands on a box of these...

Putting them next to the 190 SMK, they look nearly identical. Profile looks the same, boat tail starts at the same location and the ogives are within 0.010" of each other, which falls within normal lot tolerances.

The base of the boat tail looks slightly smaller in diameter, but the edge is sharper. The meplat on the Nosler is slighly larger. This bullet would benefit more from pointing, but if both bullets were pointed, they would probably end up with nearly identical BCs.

It looks like a very close copy of the Sierra, as expected. I will try to go over to a buddy's and weight them on his Acculab scale and run them for concentricity in his Vern Juenke machine.
