I use almost exclusively Nosler bullets...growing up just down the street from their factory made it the hometown and obvious choice. That being said, after about 30 years of hunting and reloading I have never had a bad experience with Noslers...the AB is my new favorite for most of my whitetail hunts. Currently using 140g AB's in my 270 WSM and my backup 270 WIN...for Elk I just loaded up some 150g AB's for my 308 (I'd prefer to shoot 180's but my Elk rifle...an older Savage 99 in 308...just doesn't like anything heavier than 165's...shot 165 Partitions for years so will now try the 150 AB's this season).
