nuttyspaniel Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Has anyone any experiance with the Nosler ct silver tip bullets? I am wondering are they less explosive than v-max and the normal nosler b/tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

col48 Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 hi i shot them for quit some time, and very good they was 2. if you are using them for deer, and you are shooting at normal range, keep them down to 3000 FPS or less. this will stop meat damage, i shot mine at 3075 and have shot everything from muntjac to sika stag and had no problems at all. the only problem i had with them was the lublox coating on them. i had to put 5 or 6 shots through my barrel after i had cleaned the barrel to get it to shoot. after that it shot 1/2" @ 100y all day long, the rifle was a 270 wsm tikka T3 and is still shooting as good today.

v-max Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hello Nutty i tryed them in the 25/06 115g in either 47.7g N160 or 54.5 RE22 & fed M prim but im going back to cci primmer's.The best load was that of RE22 a very good round just not sure of the moly coat as i use other bullet's in this cal or i would just use these head's.

Guest Smeagle Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 I use them all the time and with good results in the .300 wsm, its a bit fast for them, but they stil hold good retention and like Col says the Lublox coating cleans out normally.

v-max Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 They were great on the deer roe/red shot flat never botherd in the wind & accurate.Dont know how fast but i would say 2700/2900fps going by data RE22 54.5g 2900fps.I also had Speer TNT 87g 52.2g N160 & shot in the same hole's so i had 2 load's light & heavy.I zero on the top edge of an 1" circle say zero 150yrd & was only droping 2"-4" at 250yrd & thought good for 115g bullet not loaded to hot etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
