I switched to the 69s and 80s for XTC when Sierra joined the mile high (price) club. Didn't even have to change the load.
 
Re: nosler custom copetittion bullets?

Some say they are the same as the Sierra's in profile. I like them a lot. I haven't done any comarison between the two, ( don't think I'm a good enough shot to tell) but I will definatelly keep using them. Maybe Sierra will bring their price down. I'm sure they have lost lot's of buisness because of that.
 
Re: nosler custom copetittion bullets?

I shot the 140's out of my 6.5x284, at 1k. No problems, cheap bullets that preform very good. I did notice accuracy differances between Nolsers and Sierras, but they are a very good bullet, price wise also.
 
Re: nosler custom copetittion bullets?

Thanks everyone for the replies.- I will give them a try.

 
Re: nosler custom copetittion bullets?

I ran a couple of hundred of the 77 grain through one of my .223s and they shot really well.

I bought 2K of the .308, 155 grain and they don't shoot nearly as well out of my DPMS .308 as the Lapua Scenars do, but, I haven't tried them out of my bolt gun yet.

I like the 52gr HPBT in my .22-250
 
Re: nosler custom copetittion bullets?

168 Nosler HPBT's are a different profile than 168SMK's. I've found the ogive to be about .015" farther forward on the Noslers.

That being said, they are my pill of choice, MidwayUSA has them in stock last I checked and they run about $63/250.
