New 105gr 6mm Nosler

[ejg223]

Nosler seems to have come out with a new 105gr 243 match bullet.

The HPBT Custom Competition is rated with a BC of .593 quite a bit

higher than the 105 a-max with .500

I found with the 52 gr 22 cals the Nosler match bullets were much more consistent in

weight and length than the a-maxes. They shot tighter groups and were cheaper.

Anybody have an idea if a standard 243 remmy sporter 9 1/8 twist will stabalise a 105 grainer?

Hi edi,

Standard 243 twist will stabilise 100grn factory ammo but may not stabilise long 105grn VLD style bullets

Hi edi, ..

 

My standard R700 VLS had a 1- 9 +1/8 twist and would stabilize a 105 grain Amax no problem ( pushed hard ) but a 107 matchking would not hit a barn door.

 

I can confirm also as Vermincinerator has posted ...they will not with a 105 vld ....my findings only ....not at local altitudes any way ...
