Excellent photos. North Fork bullets are certainly a product to notice. I just received some .264 120 grain bullets from them and I'm just waiting for a chance to turn them loose from my 6.5 X 55 The entire line seems to be well thought out. Thanks for the photo 500 grains.....now back to your job as  marketing manager at North Fork...../////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

500, with the bands the opposite of a TSX or Banded Solid, are you getting more velocity or less pressure? | |||

Both! | |||

The reduced contact surface of the NF gives you less of a pressure spike while engraving, and less friction as the bullet moves down the barrel. This means more velocity at less pressure, and less fouling than Barnes. At the Barnes booth at SCI a Barnes guy claimed that other companies where copying their banded solid. I had to point out to him that Barnes was more than 10 years late joining the driving band, flat nose solid bandwagon, and the fellow changed the subject.  The fact is that Barnes uses wide, thick bands because they are cheaper to manufacture, and keep profits as high as possible. In contrast, the NF bullet pictured was designed for optimal performance, and priced thereafter. Do we want a bullet that maximizes profit or that maximizes performance? | |||

Thank you 500, sounds like a winner! The other pleasing factor is, I haven't heard a bad thing about any North Fork bullet! Deffinatly strengthens the cause of their designing not for monetary calculations but performance for hunters! You gotta like that!!  | |||

I bought Northfork bullets a long time before Barnes came out with their first groved bullet. Barnes advertising sounded very similar to Northforks too. Interesting, where did they get the idea? What 500grains said. | |||
