BEND, Oregon -(Ammoland.com)- At the beginning of the year, Nosler announced the newest and largest member of their cartridge family, the 30 Nosler which takes the best attributes of many currently available .30 caliber magnums and combines them into one cartridge.
The 30 Nosler easily meets the velocity of the 300 Weatherby, headspaces on the shoulder like a 300 RUM, has an efficient powder column like the 300 WSM and fits in the same standard length action of a 300 Winchester Magnum.
The 30 Nosler is a SAAMI standardized cartridge making for consistent brass and chamber dimensions industry wide. Nosler is now shipping 30 Nosler Brass, Trophy Grade Ammunition and naturally, their full line of Model 48 rifles in 26” barrel configurations.
The initial offerings in Nosler’s Trophy Grade
Ammunition provide the ideal blend of velocity, power and downrange terminal performance.
They are:
26” Barrel
- Nosler Trophy Grade Ammunition – 180gr AccuBond® 3200fps
- Nosler Trophy Grade LR Ammunition – 210gr AccuBond® LR 3000fps
The 30 Nosler shares the same parent case as the 26 & 28 Nosler® as well as the C.O.A.L. of 3.340” allowing this cartridge to be operated in a standard length action for lighter weight and shorter bolt throw when compared to magnum length actions.
