Hello! I am looking for an ogive measurement on a 7mm 175 grain Long Range Accubond, or better yet, someone that could send me four or five in the mail as samples? I would cover all costs.

Thanks!

R.

OK. Seriously...65 people have read this thread...I need help! I have two rifles to chamber for 175 LRABS. Someone somewhere must have a few to send, or at least one to measure?

Thanks!

How hard is it to send stuff to Canada? I have some I could help you with depending on the pain in the ass it is.

All I really need to know is where the ogive is. Do you have any 168 grain LRABs? We can just compare the two.
Sending 3 or 4 bullets up clearly marked as samples would not be an issue.

Thanks for your help!!!

Why don't you call Nosler? They are usually really helpful

I have both called and e-mailed. They were less than useless, which is a departure from the norm for them. I have tried more than once, and can't get the info required.

I need measurements from a 175...I have some 168's.
Specifically, I am looking for where the shoulder, or ogive, of the bullet is.

Thanks!
