[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 475097, member: 10178"] Popapi I though I would add that the 130 Accubond is really a good bullet. I have only recovered one. It was shot into a big body buck at 111 yards. The buck was almost facing me with a slight left shoulder angle. The bullet was placed on the edge of the left shoulder. It smashed the shoulder made soup of the vitals and when I was cutting up the meat I found the bullet in the right ham. It was a text book mushroom and the weight was 87 grs. That bullet had to be still going around 3200 fps on impact and to smash that shoulder bone and go the length of that buck and still hold together it has to be a great bullet. Not to mention they are accurate. I was thinking about using the 120 ballistic tip but it was going 3600 fps and I think it would probably explode on the hair of a deer inside 200 yards. I did a lot of research and talked to a number of 264 mag shooters and decided that Retumbo seemed to be THE POWDER now for the 264 mag since they stopped making H-870. Good luck and good shooting and don't heat up that barrel too much when working up your loads. :D [/QUOTE]
