Nosler AccuBond Long Range .338 Cal 300gr Bullets

The Nosler AccuBond Long Range bullet in .338 caliber, 300 grain spitzer point (Nosler part no. 58518), was developed for long-range hunters chasing today’s ultra-high-velocity cartridges and high-grade optics out past 1,000 yards. Nosler designed the AccuBond-LR line for a minimum impact velocity of 1,300 fps to reliably expand at those extended distances, well below the 1,800 fps minimum required by the company’s standard hunting bullets. Because the lead core is bonded to the copper jacket, the bullet holds together under extreme velocities, and the jacket itself is tapered — thin at the nose, thicker toward the base — to further tune expansion across that wide velocity range.

Key Specifications

• The bullet is .338 caliber, 300 grains, in a spitzer point profile within the AccuBond Long Range (ABLR) line.
• Bullets ship 100 to a box.
• The lead core is bonded to the copper jacket, keeping the bullet intact at extreme impact velocities.
• The minimum impact velocity for reliable expansion is 1,300 fps, extending usable range beyond a standard hunting bullet.
• By comparison, Nosler’s standard hunting bullets require a 1,800 fps minimum impact velocity to expand reliably.
• The jacket is tapered — thin at the nose and thicker toward the base.
• That tapered construction tunes expansion across a wide range of impact velocities, from close range to extended distance.
• This bullet was developed for hunters using today’s ultra-high-velocity cartridges and high-grade optics out past 1,000 yards.
• The bullet is intended to still perform reliably on big-game animals at those stretched-out yardages, not just fly flat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What impact velocity does this bullet need to expand? The AccuBond-LR is designed for a minimum impact velocity of 1,300 fps to reliably expand, compared to 1,800 fps for Nosler’s standard hunting bullets.

Why is the jacket tapered? The jacket is thin at the nose and thicker toward the base, which helps the bullet expand reliably across a wide range of impact velocities at extended range.
