how will it compare with the Sierra,,found some in stock,,Sierras on backorder,,I assume they are both made with J4 jackets.

may go to 75gr Hornady BTHP,,BC of .400 and runs at mag length,,

big, Sierra don`t make nothing on a J-4 jacket. I`d be getting the Noslers if pricing is close.

mr.big · Apr 6, 2009

they are cheaper

mr.big · Apr 6, 2009

you believe the Noslers are better

I`d buy small and see how they shot. I love both Sierra and Nosler, my bestest 2 bullet companys. The heavier jacket on the Sierras, may be better in a semi auto.

I've used the Nosler 77gr Custom Competitions for several years now. My home built SPR with 1/7 18" SPR White OAK loves the cheaper Nosler pills! The Sierra's will do in a pinch but don't print near as well as the Nosler J4 Custom Competition's! For my 1/9 rifles I just use Hornady 55gr FMJBT's
