Nosler Accubond 7mm .284 160gr

Anyone else use this for deer?
How does it perform?

Looking to build a hunting load for my Remmy 700 7mag and trying to decide which bullet to start with.

My wife has a Remington Model 700 chambered in 7-mm Remington Ultra Mag. She has a muzzle break on this rifle so it kicks more like a 270-winchester.
She has been shooting the 160 grain Nosler Partition & Accubond out of this rifle. I can not tell the difference in the two bullets in the way they preform, the exit holes look to be the same size. Both bullets have preformed very well on Antelope, Whitetail, Mule deer & Elk. Both bullets shoot the same on paper also. I have started buying Nosler Accubond's for her rifle when I find a sale. I never seem to find a sale on the Partitions.

I am sure you will be very happy with the Nosler Accubond in your 7mm.

Good Luck Hunting,

W.K.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to pick up a box this week.

there have been 26 deer taken with the 160 accubond from my 7mm Allen Magnum in the last 3 years, shot at ranges from 307 to 1350 yards, they've all exited save 1, that one hit an unseen limb and put an entry hole in a deers hip the size of a tennis ball, it still made the lungs on a hard quartering away shot, thats the only one that moved more than 10 yards. They are better at holding togather than the partition if you drive them hard and hit bone.
