I went to Gandr Mtn today and they had 1 box of nosler 250 HPs, so I bought them. $22 for 100 count. I think they are .451. According to your chart, will they have similar BC as the speer?
I am thinking these are the ones you got. They are 44 cal (.429). If you have not opened them yet and Gander is close I would suggest not opening them and returning them. They are an excellent Sporting Handgun bullet and will probably work for an ML.

The one below actually the one you want but they are expensive. .451 -260 grain Nosler Partition

By the way, pricing wise, speer is more here. Last week I paid $12 and change for 50 count of speers. I'll shoot both at 90g of 777 and 100gand see where they group best.
The Speer Gold Dot 250 grain .452 is the correct Gold Dot - I can usually get them for right at $13 from Sportsmans if I go to Spokane, here locally on the shelf they are right @ $16.
By the way again, I have gone through 3 packages of cotton patches for swabbing. Anybody cut their own and is 100% cotton material the best?
For spit patching I use the cheapest patch i can find and I buy large bags of them to cut the cost. For cleaning I do use the lilly white cotton patch again bought in 500/1000 count to reduce the price. Cayugad and a lot of other cut their own patches hopefully he will get on and tell you what to get at your local Wal-Mart.

crap sabotloader, its neither one of them and they have been opened. the box reads .451 250g
colt. they look to be the same size comparing them to the speers, length etc. the nose is HP but black. Will they still work? What should I expect?
