Nosler/Combined technology ballistic silver tip...

[Tenntrapper]

I'm looking for opinions on this bullet. Specifically, 95g 243 win, but I imagine it would apply to all. I've read some reviews claiming difficult cleaning. Some claiming...either use it...or copper...but stick with it. Don't try to use both. Others claiming it's "lubalox" and not moly...so it's a non-issue.
Anyone use this bullet that can offer some feedback?
Much appreciated

I used them in 180gr from a 30-06 and needed 1/2gr more powder to get the same velocity as non coated, that was the only differnce I noticed. I switched back and forth between coated and noncoated with no issues. I cleaned the same as always with no issues.

On game performance was the same between both.



The 95 NBT is a great bullet.

I used to shoot those in .270 and .300 win mag. I've lost a lot of meat due to those bullets. I've shot Barnes TTSX in several calibers for about 10 years now.

While I prefer the Partition n AB
The BT in either form has served well .
In my experience there is no difference between the BT n CBST.. Shot em on top of each other. Clean the same n no issues there either.
Your correct the coating is Winchester Lublox not Molly .
There few n far between it seems for us reloaders n the line up keeps shirnking.

Have a Great Day n God Bless All.
