[QUOTE="CLW, post: 464871, member: 27224"] Nosler says that the slowest speed for optimum performance is 1800 FPS on the Accubond. I dont see a 150 Accubond listed but I punched in the BC for the 150 Ballistic Tip as they are the same BC as Accubonds. If you can push a 150gr at 3200 then you will still be pretty close to 1800 at 1000 yards (probably 1700 something...??). They also have no maximum velocity and will hold together well at 3200 FPS if you happen to get a close shot at something. I havent used the Berger bullets or see their performance on game but I dont know that they would hold together as well at close ranges with the speeds you want. If you can get the accuracy you want with the Accubond then I would suggest that for an all-around hunting bullet........ My 2 cents..... Dont know of any specific loads, I shoot 180 Accubonds out of my 300 WSM and IMR 4350 has been by far the most accurate, consistent powder for me and the hotter the better as far as accuracy. It is listed as a powder to use for the 270 WSM with 150's also and the max load is listed as best accuracy on Nosler's site. Obviously your mileage may vary... [/QUOTE]
