I bought some Accubond 2nds and when they arrived they don't really look like Accubonds. They have an orange tip, which was on the web site when I ordered. But they also have a cannelure, is this a new thing? Did they maybe send me a different bullet? Thanks

I've ordered a bunch of .257", .277", .284", .308" and .358" AB seconds from Nosler, they all have white tips, some have a cannelure others don't, they evidently sent you the wrong product.

I shoot nothing but accubond seconds. Never know what the tip will be. I've had a couple batchs with cannelures. I think normally these are overruns meant for someones factory ammo not seconds. I've never seen what I would call a blemish.

They've got a note on the 180gr .308" AB that they have an orange tip, I just bought 100 last week that have white tips, so that's new on their site, I don't think it was when I ordered em.
Partition blems will sometimes have cannelures too. LIke was said above they are almost certainly over runs for someones factory ammo....all the factory ammo that uses Accubonds and Parts will have a cannelure to crimp into spec'd into the bullet. Go enjoy...they are the real thing.
