Default RE: Ballistic tip?

Yea, but the velocity of a 7mm-08 and a 7mm mag are very different. The BT's are made for rifles like 7mm-08's and 30-06's. The accubonds are made for the magnums. BT bullets will expand too fast under higher velocity and very well can and will fragment when striking bone. I've had it happen not once, but three times!

This debate is simple really. BT's are designed for rifles shooting under 3000fps or for game theyre designed for with higher velocity. The bonded tipped bullets are the answer to the BT problem under higher velocity. I challenge anyone with a rifle shooting faster than 3100 fps to try a bonded tipped bullet before you try BT's. I think most would find that the vonded bullet goes well high high velocity and big game.
