Is a bonded bullet a good choice for whitetails?
I've shot Nosler Ballistic Tips in 150 gr. out of my A-Bolt .270 Win. for several years now. They provide excellent accuracy and terminal performance on all the whitetail deer that I have used them on. No complaints there. But my curiosity has been stirred up by all the talk about bonded core bullets, mainly the Accubond and Interbond by Nosler and Hornady. I like to try something new once in awhile and have been considering working up a new load for my .270 Win. and wanting to try something in the 130 or 140 gr. bullet weights. I really like the looks of the 130 Interbond and the 140 Accubond in the .277 caliber. Both have high BC's, especially the 140 Accubond (which has the same BC as the 150 gr. Ballistic Tip which I shoot). Would you consider these better choices for whitetail deer than the Ballistic Tip's? If you were to give one of these new bonded core bullets a try in a .270 Win., which would get the nod, the Accubond or the Interbond? I look forward to your opinions. Thanks!!
