[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 232744, member: 2736"] Hicks Nosler has created a great bullet in the accubond but on thin skinned game at long range the ballistic tip would be a better choice than the accubond but at your velocitys would be devastating at close range. I use all three bullets (ballistic tip, accubond and the partition ) depending on the game and the range hunted. Some times you have to make a shot placement choice because of distance and the game because as we all know nothing is ever perfict. Example=If I were hunting with partitions ,anticipating a hog at 1 to 200yrds and a nice buck stepped out at 100yrds I would clip the nearest shoulder to force the partition to expand. In the 7/08 I like the ballistic tip,and in the 7 STW or the 7 RUM I like the accubond on deer or Elk, but on hogs and tough skinned game I use the partition. Doin't give up on the accubond, It's a great bullet and if it's what your rifle likes try to pick the best shot placement for the shot that presents it's self. Just my opinion for what it's worth.
