If your gun can shoot them use Scirrocos otherwise stick to partitions. I am not impressed with Accubonds. they may be bonded bullets but they sure don't act like one.

Never had luck with the sciroccos and they built pressure much quicker than the accubonds and will flatten out like a pancake. I have been really happy wiht the way Accubonds shoot. I can't wait until I try them on game.

I haven't been able to get scirocco's to shootaccurately in my riflesand they foul much worse than any other bullet that I have used.

I have noticed this as well. The Scirocco jacket is made of pure copper, according to their brochure, and appears to be much thicker than other bonded bullets. The thinner copper alloy used in the Accubond seems to foul a lot less - but is also more brittle and does not create the big wound channel of the Sciroccos. They are both good bullets - but the Accubond seems to have been designed to closely duplicate the terminal performance of the Partition; turnip-shaped wound channel with lots of penetration.
