Does any use or have tried the Nosler 260 gr Ballistic Tip in their 375 JDJ? I am looking for load data.

Thanks,

Bill

For what it's worth.....

On a recent flight to Africa, I talked to JD Jones at length about the 260 BT .375 bullet and a recent report of bullet failure I had seen when this bullet was used in the 375 JDJ. He explained that the bullet is too tough for use at 375 JDJ velocity, the jacket doesn't expand properly and causes the core to seperate from the jacket. He said not to use in the 375 JDJ or the 375-06 JDJ!
