This thread is the reason I joined up. At the risk of derailing too heavily - I found a post of Brads from 2012(?) where he mentioned he hadn't used the Nos AB in 150 or 165 in the 308 iirc, but (years) later I see a recommendation from him on that bullet in 308. Brad, can you briefly explain your use experience there? Am working up a Varget / 165AB / Tikka T3x lite load in wifes 308 for next year elk. At 100, most are 1.5-2" groups, with a couple 1" or better groups so I think I'm getting close. Just wanted to hear some experience on this bullet in that application. Right now sitting at 45gr & 2700fps+/- for seat depth tweaking. No pressure signs.
If I can add anything to the conversation it's that the AB doesnt really seem to be too jump sensitive - all were good enough groups. .010 (alright group, 6 ES), .060 (good group 20ish ES), and .120 (best group, 20ish ES) all showed promise for incredible, though.
