NOSLER wants to see your success

I really enjoy all the photographs folks have posted up! It's great to see the young kids both male and female out there having fun with mom and dad. It doesn't get much better than those types of pictures.

Nolser Up Front - to mitigate life's little surprises in bear country.

 

Last years bull. 460 yards 7mm Mashburn super 150 grain nosler ballistic tip punched through both shoulders and came to rest on offside hide and bullet looked perfect


Two weeks later the wife shot her biggest buck with same 7mm Mashburn and 150 grain ballistic tip.
 
I've been shooting nosler bullets almost exclusively for 30 years. Since I do all the reloading for my immediate family, they have also shot noslers almost exclusively.

Back when I was younger, I shot many thousands of the old style lead tipped solid base bullets. I still have several hundred each of the 180 30 caliber, 120 25's, and 100 grain 243's. These were great bullets that performed excellent at a price point that made them affordable for any budget, in particular since they came 100 to a box. I shot lots of antelope, deer, and even a few elk with them.

Once nosler went more toward the ballistic tip and largely stopped production of the original solid base bullets, I scoured the internet, pawn shops, and gun stores and I still have a pretty good stash on hand. I still load and shoot them at game for the 25, 30, and .243's, but not for practice anymore.

A few animals from those original solid bases.

Wifes first mule deer shot with my 6mm and 100 grain solid base:

Buddy and I shot these 2 bucks, the one on the left with a 180 partition, the one on the right with a 100 grain solid base from 6mm:

Both shot with a 120 grain solid base from 25/06:

A few whitetails with the 100 grain solid base from my 6mm:

I could have easily shot the original solid base bullet the rest of my life in the .243, .25., and even .30 caliber and been content.
 
We have also shot a ton of partitions, and again, if they were the last bullet I could shoot...would be completely content with them.

250 grain partition from my 338 for these critters:

Even when you screw up with a 250 grain nosler partition, the bullet isn't going to let you down. Shot through this frozen lodgepole and killed the cow elk that was standing behind it. Bullet deflected very slightly hitting the cow at the base of the neck, broke the neck and exited the middle of the off shoulder:

Blood trails usually aren't much of a problem to follow with a 250 grain partition either:

This bull was laying about 10 yards past that rock:

The great thing about nosler bullets, you dont have to guess or wonder if they're going to work when you have those tough to draw tags.

Killed in my favorite spot while hunting with my dad. If my house is on fire and I have time to grab one trophy, it's unquestionably this one.
