My question to you all I am planning loading Nosler Partitions for deer. Is this the best choice for minimal meat loss.I know with it velocity potential they will need to be pretty good construction

The 110gr accubond is a great choice for deer hunting with a 257wby.

Another vote for the 110 gr accubond. My friend uses them in his .25-06 for deer and antelope. They've been great performers on all game he's shot.

For my .308's and .277's,accubonds have worked just as well as partitions on game,and I shoot better groups with accubondsat thetarget range.

I find that they retain as much weight as a partition,but they shoot slightly flatter.
