Nosler .204 Bullet

Post by jwsmith1959 »

Nosler has a big sale going on their .204 32 gr. FBHP bullets.

I bought about 500.

Just thought I would share.

You do know that the Varmint Nightmare from Midsouth Shooters and the Dogtown one's from Midway USA are the same bullet and often go for less. Noslers make those for them, just changes the name. Bill K :)

From what I read and have been told, Nosler came out with that 20 cal bullet, especially for bulk sales to the Australian and N.Z. shooters for their culling purposes, and Midsouth and Midway picked up on it and obtained them under their product name, for bulk sales to guy/gals like us, for our varmint shooting at a lower price.
I used many of them in my shooting of ground squirrels, rock chucks, coyotes and general target shooting, until my state passed laws and we are supposed to only shoot animals, game and non-game with lead free now.
They were always accurate and did a great job on giving critters flying lessons. :D Bill K :)

It is a good idea to keep an eye at Nosler. They will have some good sales off and on. I bought 223 and 204 loaded ammo for about the same price as new brass.
I bought some bullets that were on clearance, it was never sent on a email flyer. There were only a few thousand, I and a couple of buddies cleaned them out.

Not only do I get the email notices from them, but I also check Nosler's Shooters pro shop site often, for sales and specials. BIll K :)
