    Good call, good for everything except elephant, buff, hippo and rhino, I use 150gr ttsx's in my 7mmRM for that reason that they are tough enough for when I do a trip back to Africa and I won't have to change my loads.

    The LR Accubonds look like a good option too.

    If all is correct, it means I'm going to have to sell my 6.5's and get 270's
    Damn.

    I still can't find these bullets on the Nosler site, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

    Actually just went and had another gander, are they the ones of various types headed "New"
    though I still can't see the 277 cal ones if it is.

    The projectile weights and advertised BC's look promising.

    Bryan Litz had a look at the design due to the questions over the B.C's and even he was suprised - reckoned they were going to be pretty close apparently.
