They ARE good, 98% of the time.
There are quite a few competitors shooting them, but the issue has always been that they'll kick out a flier every now and then, in spades for the blems. The question has always been "Are you a good enough shooter to SEE the flier?".
If I were shooting Noslers, I'd buy Grade 1. I think they are still WAY cheaper than Sierra.
Now for field use, if a guy wants to use a 77 BTHP, I'd think the Noslers would be a really good option. No cannelure, but the Sierra's "cannelure" is just there for feel-good anyway...it's not deep enough a roll to do much as regards fragmentation. Not like the Hornady 75 C.
Which, uh. Is a helluva bullet, by the way.
I will point out that nearly all the 77 BTHP bullets impact exactly the same place, +/- very little. The "nearly" is in regards to the Lapua Scenar-L. It ain't the same pill as the rest, by a long shot.
