Nosler Trophy Grade .243 Winchester 85 gr Partition 20 Rounds Ammunition – 60002

I’ll start by saying that this is the most expensive ammo (by far) I’ve ever bought. I knew it was going to be expensive. I bought a box of the trophy grade and another four boxes of the match grade as I wanted to have 100 fired brass to reload. As far as the actual product goes it is a great round and even out of a brand new Christensen Arms ELR it’s grouping was super tight (even had a couple that went through the same hole almost exactly). The rounds are extremely uniformed. I fell in love with the Nosler 28 round with the intention of hand loading as I can’t afford to keep shooting the only factory ammo available. Check YouTube out on 28 Nosler! You’ve got 12 year old kids dropping bull elk at nearly 1400 yards! The BC on anything 7mm is awesome. Though I’ve only punched paper or rang steel with this round so far there is no doubt that it would stop whatever it hits in a hunting situation. I was hitting steel at 400 and 600+ yards yesterday and the match round (which has much less energy than trophy grade) was hitting the 10” ar500 1/2” plate with tons of authority. The round works flawlessly. I just wished somebody else would jump in and manufacture brass and or ammo.

Killed my first Montana elk last fall with the 165 Partitions and 300 RUM. 220 yards and the animal dropped in his tracks. I had some 180 Accubond hand loads that the rifle loves but the guide didn't want plastic tip bullets for some reason. I didn't have time to work up a new load so I ordered several boxes of the 165 PT. At the range I was very impressed that the partitions were holding just under 1 MOA out to 700 yards. This will be my go to ammo for elk from here on.

I purchased this ammo after reading all the great reviews for it. I’ve been using this ammo for my .270 win all spring/summer down at my range preparing for the fall hunts and man am I SUPER pleased on how accurate and deadly these are! After fine tuning and lots of shooting time at my range my very last 3 shots I’ve took, all 3 bullet holes were touching each other @100 yards. On my first moose hunt this year (early Sept) on the last day of our trip I dropped a bull moose right in his tracks, all it need was one bullet no need for a second shot. I will most likely be using this ammo probably for the rest of my life after seeing what it can do on big game animals. Super excited for my next hunt!!!

I bought this on a recommendation of someone who loads their own ammo. I use 165 gr. Accubond in my Tikka T3x -06. I've gone through 30 rounds and every shot has touched the other in a dead bulls eye each and every time.

I purchased this ammo for my 300wsm to honestly to get my hands on the brass, but figured I could do a review of the ammo in the process to get an idea of where their QC process stands. Sorely disappointed, I got a 3.07 inch - 4 shot group at 200 yards, followed by a 2.89 inch - 4 shot group about 15 minutes later (I typically group just under an inch @ 200 with this rifle with various loads). Maybee I got a bad batch? One thing I noticed upon initial inspection - the primers in about half the rounds had a small half moon on the side of the primer where it looked like considerable force was used to push the primers into the pocket without the plunger being properly lined up. I wrote nosler an email about it but did not receive a response. Either way - disappointed with the factory ammo at such a high price point... but I guess with the empty brass being basically the same price - the loads are basically free - so from that perspective.....

After 16 years of applying finally drew a once in a lifetime quality bull elk tag. I wanted to have the best ammo available. Borrowed a Ruger M77 300 WM from a buddy. Initially zeroed with cheaper ammo before using this Nosler ammo. Have no idea what the velocity was but this ammo shot a good group and worked in the action as slick as warm butter .Placed 2 rounds through the heart at 250 yards on a 6 x 6 bull. After walking 15 yards it tipped over for good. Two entry and two exit holes. Well pleased with the performance and worth the expense.

Every gun shoots different brands of ammunition differently. I bought these in the 150 grain 30.06 for my Browning A-bolt and they were all over the place. Very inconsistent. I even had someone else shoot the gun to make sure it wasn’t my shooting and he couldn’t get them to group either. On a friends suggestion I bought the Hornady 150 grain GMX and within a few rounds I was shooting sub 1 inch groups. I will stick with Hornady from now on.

I’ve been hunting my whole life an tried plenty of ammo. I buy this one to go with my Browning Hells Canyon 308 speed bolt and all it does is brass gets stuck in barrel. It will shoot the round the brass gets stuck won’t extract. Ram rod lightly in end of barrel after spent shell to get it out.... Tried plenty of other Ammo Federal, Remington etc an they all works flawlessly in this bolt action gun. Looking on other reviews I’m come across other people with this ammo am does same thing pulled out micrometer an the brass is little to long an gets lodged in barrel..

I bought this ammo for my 257 weatherby magnum there is nothing you can compare with it i use this ammo in both my hunting rifles on my 30 06 ..165 grain an 257 weatherby magnum 110 grain i will never use any different ammo as long as this kind of ammo is available out there in the market very good product for long range shots

Love this ammo and with my rifle. i get sub1/2 moa five shot groups. I have not taken game with it yet. I do more bow hunting but the retention of weight i have seen is great.

Seem to be very consistent in finished product build. Did notice what appeared to be varying POI between boxes especially with different lot numbers. That was a bit disappointing when you’re paying $3 every trigger pull. Could have been me though, time will tell.

Super accurate out of my .308 c bolt. Hopefully find out this november if it does a good job on deer.

I shot my first accubond buck this week, and I was thoroughly impressed with the massive wound channel. The deer needless to say didnt take a step after the first shot was fired.

I purchase Nosler for my big game hunts. The ammo is one of the best grades for taking down an Elk. I can always count on a good fire when using Nosler. Definitely worth the money and I highly recommend for your use.

Best .308 rounds money can buy. Super accurate. Now if I could get my crosshairs on an elk I’d be in business

The Nosler Trophy Grade 180 grain Accubond shoot great out to 600 yards in my Christensen Ridgeline .300 win mag. I put 2 through a bull elk with great penetration and a very short blood trail.

I bought these a couple months ago and love them but so far after every time I’ve shot them out my savage 308 they tend to get stuck and I have to tap on the action to get them out but overall a gun round

Had a box of these in 30-06 that was a year old and kept in the gun cabinet with very little humidity. Took them to the range and two did not fire even though there was a solid hit on the primer. Glad I wasn't being charged by a grizzly. That's the first time that has ever happened to me using numerous caliber's and brands of ammo!

I shoot Nosler Trophy Grade 180 grain AB in a Tikka T3 Lite 300 Win Mag. My best 3 shot group at 100 meters is 1/8”. 2” at 600 yards.

Sighted my TC venture 30-06 in at 200 yards with this ammo. Hunted my first ever moose and happened to come across one at almost 700 yards. Made a calculated shot and hit him right in the bread basket. Accurate ammo, none better
