Default Hornady Interbonds??

Has anyone been having trouble getting decent accuracy from the Interbonds? I shoot 30 cal. 165's and in 3 rifles, ( that shoot other bullets well,) a 300wsm.. a 300 win. mag.. and a 30-06.. I can't get better than 2" groups with them.. these rifles are sub-moa with other (sierra are best) bullets. I like the bonded idea, for "deer-plus" size game.. Bob

Default RE: Hornady Interbonds??

I had the same problem. Tried the 130 grain .270 - shot about 2" out of my .270 Ackley. And about 2" out my brother's .270 WSM. Gave the rest of the box to a customer of mine who has a real nice .270 Sako. Shot about 2" out of his gun. Then I tried the 165 grain .308 - same deal out of my 300 Win Mag and .308 Win. The Nosler Accubonds have shot well out of just about every gun/caliber I have tested. And the Swift Sciroccos have been really good out of several of my guns, but somewhat unimpressive out of a couple of others. I'm sure someone's rifle has shot the Interbonds well - I just haven't heard of one yet.

I have a 7mmRUM that shoots <1"@100 yds with IBs in both 139 and 154 grain weights. My 300 WBY and 30-06 love the 165 grainers.

My brother shoots the Hornady factory IB loads in his 30-06 (165gr) and it groups awesome.

I have heard of others having trouble with the IBs grouping, so you guys aren't alone. In my "go to" guns, however, I wouldn't trade them for anything else right now.

FYI - I recovered a 139 gr out of a buck I shot last fall, performance was unbelievable, bullet did all kinds of damage, and kept like 85% of its weight. And that was cranked up to 3600 fps!!
