Anyone use the Nosler 34 Grain HP bullet?
Re: Anyone use the Nosler 34 Grain HP bullet?
That is great to know Bill. I took an inventory today on my 17 cal. bullets and I'm in great shape, but I have a friend who's considering going with a 17 Rem. and he'll have to start from scratch. So, those bulk 25gr. bullets will be a life saver for him.

I'm waiting on an order I split with a guy from work. Dont really need them but know my son isn't getting any younger and would help to have some plinking and short range P-Dog pills.

You are going to be surprised how well those shoot, with a accurate load worked up, all the way to 400 yrds.
T he 35 gn Berger is a great bullet, but My 204R likes the 32 Gr Nosler LF's, See some targets that were placed in Skipper's Annual 5 on a Dime shoot.
Plus also used for my coyote shooting in other 20 caliber rifles I use. One shown is 20-223 AI (40degree shoulder). No exits on Chest/heart shots and drop in their tracks. I use the 32 LF bullets due to my Kommie Kalifornia banning lead bullets on game. Both classes of what they call Game and Non-game animals in this state. They work just fine, so I do not shoot anything heavier very often.

I just wish Skipper, that many more would have taken the challenge. It was fun and your targets good one's. I especially liked the ghost one.
