Nosler Ammunition - Nosler Solids
Has anyone tried the Nosler monolithic solids, particularly the ammo loaded by Nosler? Curious about performance on elephant.

Thanks.

I have killed 3 elephants with their solid ammo with no problem. Also a few buffalo, though I prefer CEB on buff.


Good Hunting,

I cant comment on Elephant.

Ive killed 3 buff with them as the back up rounds. (1 soft / 3 solids)I shot one in the chest and it went all the way thru coming out near the base of the tail. I shot a savannah buff between the shoulder blades. The solid obliterated his spine and continued down and out of the chest cavity.

They group very well with the partitions I was using.


I have walked in the foot prints of the elephant, listened to lion roar and met the buffalo on his turf. I shall never be the same.
