[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 338439, member: 4191"] I wouldn't get excited about 154 gr Hornady Interbond until you get them to shoot decent. I purchased a box of 139 gr Interbonds 3 years ago and counted 20-25 crooked plastic tips in my 100 ct box of bullets. The group sizes I was getting were 2-3 times larger than with Nosler 140 gr Accubonds out of two different rifles. I sent the box back to Hornady and they were good about sending me a replacement box of bullets, but the new box came and had 21 crooked plastic tips too. I showed two co-workers the bullets. One of them wiggled one of the plastic tips and it fell out the nose of the bullet! Then they went home and examined some 30 and 338 caliber Interbonds they had purchased. Crooked tips in their boxes of bullets too! They perform well on game, if you can get them to shoot well enough out of your rifles. I shot a 1 1/2 yr old bull moose with one and no complaints on terminal performance. But I don't know what the lack of a plastic tip does to their BC ... :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
