[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 208807, member: 10"] At the velocity your Dad will be at with his 7mm Wby, I would say the 160 gr Accubond may be the perfect bullet for his rifle for anything up to elk. At close range, the heavy jacket and bonded core will generally outpenetrate the Partition of same weight and caliber. I have seen this in several calibers and bullet weights and in every case, the Accubond penetrated better. Also, they generally shoot more accurate then the partition. THey will also have less drop and less wind drift. At long range where velocity has dropped off, the tip on the Accubond will initate expansion MUCH more reliably then any non tipped bullet, even soft points. In my opinion, seeing how the Accubonds perform, they pretty much make the parition obsolete in many aspects. That is if your rifle likes them. They are this good and for less money then the Paritions. Other premium bullets such as the TSX and those from Swift will also work well but they have issues that the Accubond does not have. For all around use, I could think of no better bullet then the 160 gr Accubond in your Dads rifle. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
