[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 420880, member: 10178"] If you did not recover the bullet you really don't know how much expansion you actually got. I have only recovered one Accubond a 130 gr .264. It left the muzzle of my 264 Win mag at average 3350 fps and stuck a whitetail buck at 111 yards that was facing me with a slight angle on the edge of the left front shoulder. The bullet smashed the shoulder and made soup out of it's vitals and I found it in the right ham when I was cutting up the meat. It was a text book mushroom and weight was 87 grs. If you were getting nickel size exit holes after going through 2 feet of elk then that bullet expanded and held together exactly as it was designed to do. A nickle is 13/16 of an inch in diameter that is a long way from .308 . I have gotten similar results from the Nosler partition. It is not about the exit size of the hole in the animal it is about what the bullet did on the inside. By the way that was a great elk, you did good. [/QUOTE]
