Only real reason I can think of is Nosler's bottom line. Or am I wrong about that??
I remember another high end bullet maker trying to re-invent the wheel on varmint bullets(Barnes). And that bullet basically doesn't sell well. Is this Nosler's attempt at that re-invention??
I would gladly pay more for a bullet if it really is better. But my V-Max bullets do a fantastic job on little critters. Dead is dead?? Just curious. Plese no flames. Tom.
I believe it was a flyer from Graf's I saw a week or so back. They were a couple of bucks per 100 cheaper than Vmax's. I just checked powder valley, 17 cal. pills were $12 and change. Who knows if the prices will stay lower or if it is a marketing gimmick to swing Vmax users over to their pills and then throw in a price hike. I have lots of red boxes to burn up before I head down that road. Should hear some accuracy reports by then.
