[QUOTE="Riflehunter1776, post: 1364731, member: 103369"] I've never had a partition shoot as accurately as an accubond or BT. That's not to say they are inaccurate IMO, just not as accurate in my experience. For example, trying several load combos with a 6.5-06 at the 100yd range just now, the best 100 gr BT's grouped .386; 130 AB's grouped .429 and the 100gr partitions went into about a 2+ inch group. For hunting accuracy they are perfectly adequate, and their terminal performance is certainly proven, but I guess it just depends on what you expect from the rifle. Where I hunt, I sometimes have to thread bullets between small spaces in branches and brush over 200 yard distances and I feel better with the best possible accuracy, so long as the bullet performs suitably well. (this is a rifle I'd hunt doe with over longer distances in open fields, so I'm considering the BT here.....usually I use Barnes bullets in a different rifle if I'm hoping to see a nice buck in heavy cover) [/QUOTE]
