Default RE: Nosler Accubond and Barnes Triple Shock bullets

I've got both the bullets you mentioned for the .25-06. I haven't found a sweet load yet for the Accubonds, but have one load that was good enough to use on game. The bullets performed exceptionally. I have spent most of my time before and during deer season working with the Accubonds. I have just started trying to develop some loads with the Triple Shocks. I have had a little harder time getting acceptable accuracy out of the Triple Shocks with both my .25-06 and .223 than with some of the other bullets. Terminal performance has been great with the .223, exactly as advertised with 52.8 to 52.9 grains retained from a 53 gr. bullet. I would expect no less with the .25 caliber Triple Shocks. I would have no problem using Accubonds or Triple Shocks on deer or antelope, even elk out of the .25-06.

I normally handload all of my ammo, but a couple of times I've run short of handloads for the .223 and turned to Black Hills.
