180gr Accubond

[sako04]

Anyone know where I could pickup some 30cal 180 accubond bullets. I live in kelowna, checked every place I can think of within a few hours

[mike-juliet]

Nosler is still working to catch up on production, anything you luck out and find will probably be old stock, with that being said they should be caught up by summer.

I've been an the lookout for 7mm accubonds for over 2 years now, traded for some this winter, but in most calibres they don't exist on store shelves. I too have heard the rumour that Nosler recently doubled production of the accubonds and are hoping to fill all backorders by summer, I really hope it's true.

In the short term, finding someone private to buy / trade with might be your only option.

I haven't seen any Accubond 180's for over a year, 165's for almost two. Nosler emailed me last week their current inventory of all products, for Accubonds they had some 35 cal 200gr that's it!

That came straight from a Nosler rep at SHOT Show, they purchased another bonding machine to accompany the two already running at full steam for Accubond bullets

Excellent - the horses mouth is always a good place, even if a sales rep. I won't be surprized if the backorders in Canada don't run well into next year, but am still hopeful.

Did you try Grouse River? They show them to be in stock.

that mustve just happened, they didn't have any stock yesterday

[landphil]

GR is notorious for showing stock on their website and not having the stock in my experience. Then give a blank look when you ask about the item, and tell you they don't carry it. I highly doubt they have those Accubonds in stock, though I would still check.

Sako4 you can spill the beans here if you like, but i'd order them tomorrow morning first ;)

Hello,

Just a brief note to confirm that we do indeed have the 180gr Nosler Accubond 30 Caliber in stock. The product arrived just this morning, along with some 7mm Rem Mag Long Range Accubonds in 175gr, which may be of some interest to "landphil".

Both products can be found on our website below:

180gr Nosler Accubond 30 Caliber: http://www.grouseriver.com/Nosler-Accubond-30-Caliber-308-Bullets
175gr Nosler LR Accubond 7mm: http://www.grouseriver.com/Nosler-Long-Range-Accubond-7mm-Caliber-284-Bullets

Ensuring that our website displays an accurate stock status is of the utmost importance to us, so if you do find an issue, please don't hesitate to let us know. If anyone has any further questions regarding the estimated arrival of a particular bullet, I would be happy to answer them to the best of my ability.

Well, colour me surprised! Maybe the drought IS starting to end. Unfortunately for me, I'm not interested in the Long Range Accubonds, but the good news is that some are starting to arrive.

They be gone now. Hoarders beat me to hoarding some.

That's odd. I went in to GR today at 4:00 pm and got 3 boxes of the 30 cal. 180 grain Accubonds. There were still about 4 boxes on the shelf when I left. Perhaps you were after a different weight as I didn't hang around to see what else was on the shelf ?

I looked at noon for 180s, only saw 200s and 150s, dude looked in the back and said they're gone. Oh well.

[Daybreak]

PM sent FD. These things are definitely not getting any cheaper. I think I paid about $46 per box a year ago and today it is $54.99.

Do you have a load developed? How many do you need? I can spare a few. I'm heading to Lillooet on Saturday to visit the folks for a few days if you're in the area. I've been playing more with the 220 partitions in 30 cal.

[GrouseRiver]

Hello,

Wanted to follow up on this, as a quick double check from myself indicates that the 180gr are still in stock. For Fisher-Dude, or anyone else interested, I would suggest securing the product by placing an online order this evening. I have no reason to believe that the stock status on our website is not reflecting correctly, but if anyone experiences any issues with this, please do let me know with either a PM or an email to jpaterson@grouseriver.com

Thanks very much and I hope this may help a few of you out!

Thanks for the offer! I don't have an AB load yet, so I'll need many unless luck shines on me.

I'll keep up the search. Thanks again!

[Fisher-Dude]

Got some from GR!

Thanks to all who so generously offered to help, and to GR's Justin for keeping us updated.

Thinkin' they will work well in the 308 and 300 mag.

[GrouseRiver]

Glad to hear that Fisher-Dude!

Because of the limited availability of some of these bullets, we fully appreciate how important it is for stock status and product availability to be accurate, and I am glad that we were able to get things resolved in this instance. Once again, if anyone has any questions, concerns, or feedback of any sort, please feel free to let me know.

Enjoy the weekend!

you might try mail order. Sure there is shipping cost but at least you will have your bullets. I was in Cabela's in Saskatoon in mid march. They had lots of 270, 7mm and 30 cal bullets including TTSX 180 grainers.
