I have shot Nosler Ballistic Tips for several years in my .280 Rem and always had good luck. Of course they were hand loaded bullets. I am going to try the Federal Premium AccuBonds this year in my 300 win mag. They shoot an excellent group, but I don't yet know how they will do ondeer. My guess is that they should be great. I don't see how you could go wrong with the BT bullet. It definitely does the trick once it hits the mark!
