They held it and I had to go 35 miles to the hub. Needed a reason to go to Cabelas! Got back home and ordered some 174 gr ammo from Lehigh for my buddy. Guess how it is being shipped... Oh well! Good ammo is worth the trouble.BlogSarge wrote:hunter2 wrote:Just a word of caution. Mine is being shipped FED-EX NO SHOW and has to be signed for. In my area the service just flat out stinks. This was a good deal but I probably will not ever see them. ( Do not show up the day or time scheduled, say nobody was at home when I am standing in the drive way when they go by, stop at wrong address, and the last time was on a Sunday afternoon and I stopped him in the middle of the road.)
Mine is being shipped with adult signature needed also, which makes things difficult to say the least. I didn't see that noted when I ordered or I'd have changed something or not ordered.
Still, a good price and it'll get sorted out in the end. I'll probably just tell them that Ill drive in and pick it up from the faciity.
Cheap Nosler ammunition.

Re: Cheap Nosler ammunition.
Bought 400 rounds - first 10 I fired failed to feed every other round in my AR-15. They're too short to feed reliably. Sigh...
Re: Cheap Nosler ammunition.
I got out yesterday and sent some downrange. At 50yds I was cutting groups of 1 to 1.25 inches. Gun is zeroed for the Barnes 110gr factory blacktip and I got same POI with these. I screwed the SDN-6 on and grouped the same size, just a few inches lower.
I was shooting out of a 16" Wilson medium weight barrel with 1:7 twist and carbine gas and Geissele SSA-E trigger. Sight is a 1-4 Millett Designated Marksman Scope.
No problems feeding like paberglund had thankfully.

I was using Gen 3 10-rnd PMags - what were you using?
Re: Cheap Nosler ammunition.
Most shots were from a Lancer 20 rd mag with a few from mil-spec aluminum 20 rounders.paberglund wrote:I was using Gen 3 10-rnd PMags - what were you using?
What AR have you got?

It's an AAC 9" upper with an AAC 762-SD silencer, lower it a Blackheart International BHI-15

Wish I had some ideas to help. Best I can suggest is to try different brand mags and maybe a different lower to trouble shoot. I can't imagine it would be short stroking with supersonic loads.

Re: Cheap Nosler ammunition.
When I saw this thread, I ordered 5 boxes, plus some 52 grain 5.56 bullets and the 190 grain .30 cal overruns. Good prices on all. I don't think I had heard of them until I saw this thread. I was not happy hearing that it was shipped FedEx with a signature required. But, it is scheduled to be here tomorrow (Saturday) and I have no plans to go anywhere, so maybe it will work out for me.
This will be the first factory ammo I have tried. I have no expectation of group performance. I am pleased that the brass alone from other merchants is almost the price of their loaded ammo.

Re: Cheap Nosler ammunition.
i put 60 rounds thru two different ars today. they all functioned without a problem. accuracy was sporadic. one group was 1 1/2" and a flyer out to 5". groups were all over the place. the did all feed.
