Nosler Sporting Handgun Bullets
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these bullets? Interested in any info, but I'm looking to load them in 357 158 grain. If u have any load info for these, please let me know your experience. Thanks!

I got a box of these many years ago, .357" 150 Soft Points.
They were good bullets, well made and accurate enough. I still have a few left.
They seem to be Nosler's effort at economical blasting bullets with no special features like the Partitions.
If they are priced right there is no reason not to use them.

I have shot many 158gr Nosler JHP factory 2nds, loads and accuracy between the Nosler and Hornady xtp's is very similar for me.

I buy them in the Bulk box of 250. They are very good bullets and a fair price and they cost a lot less that I would expect from Nosler. They seem to be as tough or tougher than XTP bullets and just as accurate.
You will be surprised at how accurate these bullets are and for not a lot of money...

I have not used them myself but do hear/read that Nosler makes an excellent product.

I've used them for years, have laid in a pile of them when they come up as 2nds. They are accurate, really do the trick on jack rabbits.
