Nosler 69 gr. Comp

[MGYSGT]

Never bought Nosler before, but in these trying times, I got 1,000 in a sealed box from one of the suppliers I normally deal with.

Question: They seem to be frosted instead of polished like the 69 or 68's I have used in the past. Is this normal? I am going to use them no matter the answer because stuff is so hard to come by. Just curious.

Thanks
Tom

Mine are shiny, but it probably doesn't matter. Just a little surface oxidation probably.

the 22's, 6mm, and .264 Custom Competitions make great practice bullets. My club gets them as a team buy and I use the same load data as the SMK's, can't tell the difference on paper between them and SMK's either

I've shot a lot of those blems. For a 200 yard match, same as the SMKs.

I have a 1000 from PV, though not specific as to who made them I would say they're Noslers. I'll be loading some up soon

A little tumble in corn cob with mineral spirits might shine them up, if you want.

Give them a bath in lacquer thinner, you'll be surprised at the amount of crud that comes off of them. Do this with first line bullets also.
