Default Accubond or Scirocco

I am looking for a good bullet that can take on whitetail and mule deer. Out of the the Swift Scirocco and the Nosler Accubond which one would you choose for medium range? Thanks

I'd go with the one that was the most accurate out of your rifle.

Agree with brother hal the one that shoots best!

IME Scirocco's are a tough egg to crack in regards to accuracy, some guys seem to do ok but many others have no such luck(me included). IME (albeit limited to this summer) the Nosler Accubond has not had the same occurance and accuracy has been good. Plan to use the AB this fall for Moose and Elk. Deer possibly but will most likely return to my standard deer medicine - Nosler Ballistic Tip.

Best of luck!

The good old standard lead flying through the air will do the trick. Isn't it funny that standard bullets have been killing deer as dead as possible all these years? Now according to all the writers and manufacturers, those bullets are totally useless for all but target shooting? And even that's debatable! I like the "cheapy, cheapy" stuff. But I agree with Skeeter, the Ballistic tip is pretty cool too!
