The Weatherby Select Plus .30-378 Weatherby Magnum 200-grain Nosler AccuBond Brass 20-round box is an ultra-high-velocity centerfire rifle cartridge engineered specifically for extreme long-range big game hunting where flat trajectories, heavy terminal energy, and reliable expansion past extended field distances are required. A primary friction point when driving projectiles at .30-378 magnum velocities is bullet disintegration at close ranges or insufficient expansion at long distances. Weatherby resolves these performance limitations by pairing the flat-shooting .30-378 casing with Nosler's molecularly bonded AccuBond projectile, ensuring structural integrity under high impact stress and dependable terminal upset downrange.
The core technical advantage relies on the aerodynamic white polymer tip, boat-tail profile, and proprietary jacket-to-core bonding technology. Featuring a high 0.588 G1 ballistic coefficient, the 200-grain Nosler AccuBond resists atmospheric drag and lateral wind drift to preserve downrange velocity and kinetic energy. The polymer tip initiates smooth, wide-diameter expansion upon impact, while the molecularly bonded lead core and thick copper jacket base prevent fragmentation, preserving mass to drive through dense hide, heavy muscle, and bone into vital zones.
Launching its 200-grain bonded projectile at a blistering 3,160 FPS, this Weatherby Select Plus load maximizes downrange kinetic energy transfer for clean, ethical harvests on large-bodied game species. Assembled using premium precision-drawn Norma brass cases, clean-burning propellants, and non-corrosive Boxer primers, it delivers consistent chamber pressure, uniform neck tension, and smooth extraction in magnum bolt-action hunting rifles. It is a premier selection for harvesting elk, moose, caribou, and dangerous game across open-country terrain.
