My first claim to fame – if you want to call it that – was working as the compiling author of the book, Rifle Bullets for the Hunter. It was without question the definitive source for hunting bullet information and, I got to work with some very respected gun writers: Boddington, Barsness, Campbell, Havilland, Spomer and, yes, even Bryce Towsley.
Unfortunately, that book was rushed to press by the publisher without a final edit. Even though it was well received – with errors and all – it is now out of print.
The reason I mention this is because that book was the ultimate continuation of my obsession with bullets and it led to my first visit to Nosler. While there, I learned even more about some of the best hunting bullets in the world.
I’ve continued the in-depth investigation into terminal bullet performance throughout my gun writing career. I’ve mixed ordnance gelatin until I’m sick of it and I’ve conducted so many autopsies of animals I feel more like a medical examiner than a hunter.
For all those reasons I’m proud to announce that Nosler is now a sponsor of Empty Cases. Nosler is a company built on the premise that their bullets matter just as much as their customers. They are family owned and operated and it shows in their product and in the character of their company.
This does not mean I won’t write about other bullets from other manufacturers. But it does mean that Empty Cases is your new source for detailed information on everything Nosler. You’ll see new products mentioned here and you will also probably get tired of hearing about the things I kill with AccuBonds.
