[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 1753291, member: 95344"] If it were my rifle and the load matched my field finding then yes I'd be fine with that load. AccuBonds aren't my favorite bullet, but if YOU like them then great. Here's my criteria for MY current needs. Is the barrel life acceptable (2k-2.5k or more). Will it shoot to a mile on steel. Will it take elk out to 700 yards or more ( even though I'll probably never shoot one that far). Will it shoot chucks out to 1k with humane kills. IMO your load on paper does that. The ES is great so it SHOULD prove to be a good LR round. Plus with the lower velocities, charge weight, and hopefully lower pressures you could stretch the barrel life. If it's a new barrel your velocities could rise after a couple of hundred rounds. But like I said earlier, does it suit your needs. [/QUOTE]
