Nosler, the world’s foremost bullet manufacturer, is proud to unveil a new lead free bullet for 2007. The E-Tip® is a revolution in bullet construction and performance.

Nosler’s patent pending E-Tip® is built on a highly concentric gilding metal frame, which provides unsurpassed penetration and weight retention. The polycarbonate tip, much like those featured on AccuBond® and Ballistic Tip® bullets, prevents deformation in the magazine, boosts aerodynamic efficiency, and initiates expansion.

Nosler’s exclusive E² Cavity™ (Energy Expansion Cavity™) allows for immediate and uniform expansion yet retains 95%+ weight for improved penetration. Initiated by a unique OD green polycarbonate tip, the E² Cavity provides amazing stopping power and peerless penetration over a broad spectrum of impact velocities.

Along with the E² Cavity and the polycarbonate tip, Nosler’s E-Tip® also features a precisely formed boat-tail that serves to reduce drag and provides a more efficient flight profile for higher retained energy at long range.

For big game hunting or recreational shooting, Nosler’s E-Tip® is a step above today’s “pure-copper” bullets. The E-Tip’s® proven patent pending alloy provides less fouling, while exhibiting superior accuracy and consistent performance over traditional pure copper designs. In the lead free world, the E-Tip® stands alone.
Will be available in 30cal. 180gr.

For a 2007 Nosler® and NoslerCustom® catalog featuring the entire line of AccuBond®, Ballistic Tip®, Partition®, Partition HG™, Custom Competition™, Sporting Handgun™ bullets, muzzleloading sabots, CT™ Supreme Hunting Bullets, NoslerCustom™ Cartridge Brass, and NoslerCustom™ Rifles contact: Nosler, Inc., P.O. Box 671, Bend, Oregon 97709, 1-800-285-3701, www.nosler.com.

Available Fall 2007

hmmmmmmm
 
jesus, Ive been away from teh web for a week :redface: and it said on the Nosler site that this "press release" was dated 2 days ago :D ok MadDog, delete this POS thread
 
It differs from the barnes x since it is made of an alloy and not pure copper,so fouling should not be an issue.Unlike the mrx,it does not have a tungsten core or grooves that reduce the BC.Hopefully it will be reasonably priced.
 
Apparantly on another post someone e-mail Nosler and they advise that they they would be priced just a little more than Partisions

Although the BC may be a tad higher, I question a few things:

1. Gilding metal is harder than copper, and with no "relief grooves" like the TSX it MAY fall victim to the same problem that plagued the original X bullets (Bullet to bore fit...some barrels loved 'em, some hated 'em).

The TSX has solved that problem.

2. The TSX is already long for it's weight, so when Barnes added the polymer tip they added a rear core to shorten the overall length.

These bullets have a boattail and poly tip but no rear core...they are going to be LONG!

Nolser has yet to disappoint with their other bullets, and I'm a huge Nosler fan.

In time we'll find out how these ones perform.... I just hope they kick ass in typical Nosler fashion!
