Default hornady interbond

anyone have any comments on these, im thinking about trying them in my 30-06 (150 grain) and 300 winchester mag(165 grain) for whitetail. Also, how do they compare to Nosler's Accubond?

They should work fine provided your rifle likes them. I have actually heard recently many good reports for both bullets on deer, though I think they aren't required for a rib shooter. I have yet to use the IB's other than on paper. However found a slight edge to the AB in accuracy and penitration in some minor testing. The IB's seem to expand a bit more, weight rentention was slightly higher with the IB into phonebooks..if that really means anything.

I did use the AB's in 160gr in my 7mm rem mag to harvest both a bull elk and moose this fall, each bullet was a complete pass through and did a good job on the vitals. No real heavy bone contact but I was pleased with the results.

I tried the 150 grn. interbond in my .300 win mag this year, and my rifle wouldn't group them worth a dern. Maybe next year I might give the accubond's a try. I currently shoot tbbc's, wich my rifle groups quite well. If I'd get off my lazy butt and start reloading all this would be irrelevant and I could possibly get the interbond's to work.
