I loaded 225gr in .338 win mag for elk. Didn' t get a shot. Used it on whitetails and shot clean thru with BIG HOLES on both sides. Deer went 75 plus yards after a lung shot. I don' t think it was the bullet. The deer was dead when I hit it, it just didn' t know it!

Should perform just like a Scirocco. In my opinion too much bullet for deer-size game but for anything larger or tougher should be a fine bullet.
Here' s my results of a deer shot last year with a Scirocco. It did the job but bullet performance from a different bullet would have been better I think. For deer either a Partition or Balistic tip would be better.
Sorry, that is the only animal I' ve shot with a Scirocco and since it didn' t fit in my rifle well (they are long for caliber since they are made of more copper than standard bullets) I stopped using them after last year.
I have not used the accubond but I have witnessed several animals killed with the 7mm-150gr scirrocco.Expansion was very good and penetration was adequate.The shoot well in my friends gun but unfortunately not in my own rifles.As for overall length they are simply loaded to a length that is less than the magazine length of the particular rifle(just like any other bullet) and they function fine.
