North Fork Premium Hunting Bullets

North Fork semi spitzer 400gr @ 2450. There is no better choice for DG.

The 400 gr, .423 caliber NF Percussion Point worked exactly as designed on my leopard. Rapid controlled expansion at its finest! Pictured is the exit wound. The PP (percussion point) is absolutely perfect for the cats. Thank you @North Fork Technologies for the best bullet money can buy.

I’ve heard the North Fork PP are great on cats.. just wish they made a .366 PP in 286gr (or 300gr) for the 9.3 x 62 and 74r calibers.

I agree, the PP in about every caliber would be a good thing !
 
I had a long talk with Dr. Robertson last weekend. He is a big fan of the heavy for caliber North Fork Bullets and suggested that I go to the NF 430gr bullets for buffalo in my 416 Rigby. He also said the 375 H&H with a NF 350gr is the perfect buffalo medicine for most people.

I wish more reloading data was available. With the scarcity and cost of reloading components, I want to develop loads with minimal experimentation and waste. Perhaps some of us can start sharing some data here. I have yet to load any NF bullets, but I have 30cal 200gr Semi Spitzer (SS), 7mm 175gr SS, 416cal 370gr SS, 430gr SS and 430gr Cup Pt on hand. I plan to use Barnes data for starting loads along with my chronograph. I always prefer heavy for caliber bullets and never "hot rod" them. I try for the best accuracy at 2300-2450 velocity.

Safe shooting
Man after my own heart. In addition to heavey for caliber, I try to get the bullets in round nose form. They just seem to hit harder. I also don’t hot rod them as they seem to hold together better at the speed envelope you described.

Spot on - NF designs the tapered jacket thickness to expand according to normal-for-caliber velocities at normal impact ranges. This enhances the overall performance for the best results. You don’t have to be super fast to be super good !
