[QUOTE="oldmossy, post: 624899, member: 44047"] I had a friend shooting 180 accubonds in his 300 weatherby mag 2 years ago on a trip to colorado. He shot a bull at a lazered 399 yds. The shot was thru the ribs on a broadside animal. Even though the bull dropped in its tracks, the performance was not what we were hoping for. The bullet didn't stay together like it should have. It only penetrated approx. half way thru the chest. Could've been a fluke. Who knows, but we were expecting complete penetration. 3150 was the muzzle velocity on his load. I shot a mule deer with 140 accubonds at 3250 muzzle at a distance of 475 and it performed great. I was shooting a 270 weatherby mag on that hunt. Take it for what it's worth. Bullets do funny things. [/QUOTE]
