Oregon company founded by John Nosler in 1948, initially producing the Partition bullet — the first controlled-expansion hunting bullet designed to prevent core separation. The Partition is still considered the gold standard of hunting bullets. Nosler expanded into complete bolt-action rifles (Model 21, Model 48), brass, and loaded ammunition. The company remains family-owned and headquartered in Bend, Oregon.
