accubonds
just wondering if there is any more info on these bullets from anyone here on hunting net
i talked to nosler a few days ago about the 200 gr .308 and they gave me rave reviews
said they would work on about everything you could shoot
they also said they had started shipping the .308 in 180 gr but i havent found any yet
i am very interested in these bullets they seem to take evey good qualit i can think of and put it in one bullet
i read wolf killers post but if anyone has anymore info on these please let me know

I loaded 225gr in .338 win mag for elk. Didn' t get a shot. Used it on whitetails and shot clean thru with BIG HOLES on both sides. Deer went 75 plus yards after a lung shot. I don' t think it was the bullet. The deer was dead when I hit it, it just didn' t know it!

RE: accubonds
Should perform just like a Scirocco. In my opinion too much bullet for deer-size game but for anything larger or tougher should be a fine bullet.
Here' s my results of a deer shot last year with a Scirocco. It did the job but bullet performance from a different bullet would have been better I think. For deer either a Partition or Balistic tip would be better.

Sorry, that is the only animal I' ve shot with a Scirocco and since it didn' t fit in my rifle well (they are long for caliber since they are made of more copper than standard bullets) I stopped using them after last year.

RE: accubonds
I have not used the accubond but I have witnessed several animals killed with the 7mm-150gr scirrocco.Expansion was very good and penetration was adequate.The shoot well in my friends gun but unfortunately not in my own rifles.As for overall length they are simply loaded to a length that is less than the magazine length of the particular rifle(just like any other bullet) and they function fine.
