Default RE: Hornady Interbonds vs. other bullets

For deer a number of bullet will work fine. My personal favorite is Ballistic Tip as it gives me the best accuracy and has worked flawless on countless harvests. However I must qualify I aim for the h/l region, while I have taken numerous deer at a quarter using the opposite shoulder as backing IMHO the BT is not the best choice for the flat out pins shooter. If you are of the belief you must break them down at the wheels then go with a bullet such as the bonded mentioned or the ever popular Nosler Partition. But if like most guys aim for the boiler room your choices are truly emmence when chasing deer in most calibers! My only worry would be these new bonded bullets might in fact be to tough for the likes of deer in a rib in and rib out scenerio. I have experienced some of this with other solid bullets in the past like the Failsafe where they left very small holes and wound channels on rib-boiler room shot, while they resulted in recovery of the animal I lean towards a softer bullet when chasing deer or antelope.

What have you used in the past for the situation? If different, why? So many choices but the more the detail the more help you may get.

As always practice and shoot what will make you feel confident.
