Call Swamp Donkey in Edmonton. If it can be brought in, he is great at doing that for customers. He and Prophet River have consistently great service and will order stuff they don't have in stock. Most of the other stores will tell you so sad too bad,check back later.

The fedreal 160 grn vital shock TROHPY BONDED is very close to the accubond .Cabela's sells them for 89.99 . nosler products are coming in slow .

If not the 150ttsx factory loads are excellent ,try something new till you score what your after and you never know what you turn out liking.

I have looked for you in 30 stores for these Noslers and zip.

The moose deer or elk won't know the difference ,or ask for help in reloading some.You must have brass ,160's are around ,100 primers, pound of powders powder and be done with it.

Hope you don't think this dry spell is ending ,another wave is coming .

Edit: nevermind, they have the partitions, not accubond. You could give the guys at kodiak lake sport shop barrhead a call. They seem to have the most nosler ammo recently

There are many loads that work well, but once a person has a load that works, and that their rifle likes, they want to avoid having to spend time and money testing more loads. A friend went through this, found a new supply of the load, a Federal Premium 140gr Partition load for his 7mmremmag, only to find that the groups were double in size, and that the point of impact moved with the new supply. Apparently Federal had changed the powder for some reason, even though the part number was the same for the new batch. I ended up doing some testing, and worked up a load that closely duplicated the original load, and now we can duplicate that load whenever he needs more.
