Default accubonds

Does anyone use/tried the winchester supreme accubonds? I would be using the 110 grain in .25-06 for deer and possibly hogs. I use ballistic silvertips right now. Just wondering how theaccubonds preform in comparsion to the silvertips.

Either would work well. If your having good luck with the Silvertips then stick with them. UNless you get big hogs(300#+) alot then you really wont need the Accubonds.

I've shot the accubonds in a 25 wssm, and they shoot well and perform well, but at the velocities the 25 wssm and the 25/06 run, I don't see any difference in the accubonds and the 115 gr BT's on deer. if you were running a 257 weatherby then the accubonds could help but at the impact velocities of the 25/06, the accubond isn't needed.

I took all of the following deer with a 140gr Accubond in .280 AI this year. I was absolutely impressed with their performance..
