[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 2042687, member: 88320"] My experience with both AB's and Bergers has been the exact same as Bigngreen . We have seen many AB blow up at closer ranges when they hit hard bone. A 180 AB blew up out of a 30-378 ( it was smoke'in fast) so bad it almost blew the entire shoulder off of an Oryx. It did die from that. I had a 250 gr out of 338 RUM blow up at 300yds on the spine of a mule deer (shooting down angle between shoulder blades). I still like AB and still use in 1 gun (200gr 8MM) but they are just not the best bullet for 1K shooting and due have some flaws. Berger are better all around IMO. I have had good results with the LRABs and I would recommend those for the 1K over the traditional AB's [/QUOTE]
