The Nosler Trophy Grade 280 Ackley Improved 160-grain ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance for serious hunters pursuing big game at extended distances. This premium factory load combines the proven Nosler Partition bullet with the velocity advantage of the 280 Ackley Improved cartridge. Each round undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent accuracy and terminal performance when it matters most.

What Makes This Different

The 280 Ackley Improved cartridge generates approximately 150-200 fps more velocity than standard 280 Remington loads while maintaining manageable recoil. The 40-degree shoulder angle and minimal body taper create efficient powder burn and extended case life. This combination produces flatter trajectories and increased energy retention at hunting ranges beyond 300 yards compared to conventional 280 Remington ammunition.

Key Features

  • 160-grain Nosler Partition bullet with dual-core construction for controlled expansion
  • 280 Ackley Improved cartridge delivers 2,950+ fps muzzle velocity
  • Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness for optimal accuracy
  • Temperature-stable powder for reliable performance in varying conditions
  • Spitzer boat-tail design provides superior ballistic coefficient
  • Factory-loaded ammunition eliminates handloading requirements
  • 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
Field testing demonstrates sub-MOA accuracy potential in quality rifles chambered for 280 Ackley Improved. The Partition bullet's front core fragments for immediate energy transfer while the rear core penetrates deeply through heavy bone and muscle. This dual-action performance proves effective on elk, moose, and other large game at ranges from 100 to 400+ yards. The cartridge maintains over 2,000 ft-lbs of energy at 300 yards.
