.310 Nosler E-Tip for 7.62x39

[Joel]

After searching high and low, managed to find two boxes of these since the Barnes 123gr TSX seems unobtainium. Cool looking bullet!

Planning on working up a load from 27-29 grains of CFE BLK. Nosler data doesn't have it but we'll see.

Anyone ever try these lil guys?

Give you a better idea of what happens when it hits an animal. Maybe try one without bone and one through bone. Pure expansion, a row of those two liter pop bottles side by side, shoot through all of them. 10 should do. Ive pulled bullets out of snow, but they werent expanded. - dan

I know what you mean...find em when it starts melting lookin just like they can be reloaded...think it'll make a nice backstop for them after they go through something interesting though.

The Barnes .310 123gr do very well at 7.62x39 speed, just like they are made for. Hope the Noslers are the same!
