Nosler Trophy Grade 280 Ackley Improved 140gr AccuBond Ammo 20rd

The Nosler Trophy Grade 280 Ackley Improved ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance with the proven 140-grain AccuBond bullet. This premium hunting cartridge combines the velocity advantage of the Ackley Improved chamber with Nosler's bonded-core bullet technology for reliable expansion and deep penetration on big game.

What Makes This Different

The 280 Ackley Improved cartridge generates approximately 150-200 fps more velocity than standard 280 Remington loads while maintaining identical pressure levels. Nosler's AccuBond bullet features a copper-alloy jacket bonded to a lead-alloy core, preventing jacket separation during expansion. This design ensures 60-70% weight retention even on heavy bone contact, outperforming conventional cup-and-core bullets.

Key Features

• 140-grain AccuBond bullet with bonded-core construction for controlled expansion
• Premium brass cases with tight tolerances for consistent chambering
• Ballistic coefficient of 0.509 for superior downrange performance
• Muzzle velocity of approximately 3,150 fps from 24-inch barrel
• Factory-loaded with temperature-stable powder for consistent velocities
• Boat-tail design reduces drag for flatter trajectory
• White polymer tip initiates expansion at low velocities

Field performance shows this load maintains over 2,000 fps velocity and 1,200 ft-lbs energy at 400 yards, making it effective on elk, deer, and similar-sized game at extended ranges. The AccuBond bullet typically expands to 1.5-2 times original diameter while retaining most of its weight for deep penetration. Accuracy testing in quality rifles consistently produces sub-MOA groups at 100 yards.
