Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Man, someone must be falling asleep at the wheel at Nosler. I have a box of .308 with a few in like this. And these are from a box of .284" 160gr. All of them looked kinda bad with burnt spot on them, but these are deformed some.

I'd be sending that picture to Nosler and seeing what they say. It doesn't fix the problem, but if they're willing to correct the situation....at least you'll be able to give us an idea about their customere service:)

Has this kind of Quality Control been common lately? Any bullets I should watch out for or avoid?

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Tx, can't think of too many you need to watch out for. I do know mossyoak33 on here had a bad set of 180gr accubonds, that were flawed where they would seat tight at first but after then he could push the bullet up and down. I think they sent him another set and said a bad batch went out that was tapered wrong.

We pay high dollar for bullets these days, and its ashamed. But well see what they say.

Nosler has a forum. I would post that picture on their forum. And then see what they do. Tom.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

If you shoot Nosler an email with the picture and details on the lot number, etc. I'm sure they would be more than happy to correct the problem and replace the box of bullets.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

yeah I called Nosler and they asked me to send them 3 or 4 in a baggie for them to examine. I did that and maybe a week later a brand new box showed up at my house. Great after the fact customer service, not so good Quality control. I work on a production line that makes about 160,000 peices per week and I know occasionally we ship one out thats not in spec. Its the nature of the beast when mass production happens.

BC, I have been using hornady interbonds due to the fact that they are cheaper than accubonds and perform as well. I did get 2 or three junk bullets in a box of 100. I think it just happens. I am actually only gonna use bonded bullets for elk and locked bullets for all else (deer andtelope). EJ

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

I would definately call Nosler, bullets aren't cheap anymore.[:o]

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

The two to the left looks terrible but the other three just look tarnished and not expectable. I know I wouldn’t be happy...

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Two or three look like they had a blow torch applied to them or something. I'd contact Nosler for sure about this.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Nosler took good care of me. My reloading room is still black and gold.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Good to hear!

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

I havn't had good luck with Nosler in 270 or 223 so I just use something else, Sierra, Hornady, Speer and Remington.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

good shootin! I hope to be at that point some day.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Ridge, you are the man. Serious as can be. My reloading room for years was green and black for years. But that was only because it was the only bullet I could get to shoot. But then I graduated to nosler.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Love that Rifle!!! I'm a lefty also... What kind is it and how much???

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Sweet rig ridge, that think looks like the real deal!!!

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

RR- What casing does that use? Can I rechamber my 7mm Rem mag to it??

Thx

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

I WOULD SEND ALL THE CRAPPY LOOKING BULLETS BACK FOR A REFUND ACCUBONDS ARE LIKE 70 CENTS EACH ARENT THEY. YOU SOLD ME ON NOT TRYING ANY IN MY GUNS.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Dude I wouldn't stop shooting Accubonds because of one bad shipment... I'm sure Nosler is just like any other comp... They would make it good...

those bullets are awsome!!!

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

I guess really, I could care less if he tried them or not.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

The bullets that get me are the 200gr barnes for .452" over buck a bullet. Swift A-Frame. They must be gold plated.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

hmmmmmmmm I feel like a robbed Cabela's then.... yesterday I....picked up 2 boxes of Barnes .416 cal 350 gr TSX for $42..normally priced $45 a box.:D:D

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

OH yea, I got a nice little care package from Nosler today. Treated me more than fair.

RE: Look at this crap Accubonds
 

Glad to hear they made it right..all I use is Nosler.
