[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 208825, member: 8"] Roy, an elk hunting trip may cost thousands of dollars and for somebody to just run their mouth about bullets they have never fired, on an animal they have never killed is a disservice. The 160 AB shot very accurately in my 7mm Wby out to 1K in my testing. I only killed one deer with it but it was close and the bullet performed well breaking a lot of bones and exiting still in one piece. I loaded it up for elk and developed a drop chart but Kirby got my new rifle ready so the 7mm Wby got left at home and never went elk hunting again.. The only thing about loading the 160AB is that because the jacket and core are tough and the bearing surface is long, pressures will rise faster than other 160 grain bullets. The long bearing surface seems to help them jump down the long freebore well though. [IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n168/bufflerbob/001_00A.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
