[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2206887, member: 105681"] I've used 140 grain Accubonds since they first hit the market and killed over 60 big game animals with them. They work! No failures. 25 to 670 yds they performed perfectly. I had to shoot one buck twice and one hog twice. The rest were all one and done. 5 years ago I rebarreled my 270 WSM with a 1:8" twist so I could shoot some heavies. I used the 170 grain Berger EOL. 150 to 400 yds and they are leaving my barrel at 3010 fps. Killed 5 bucks and 2 elk. All one shot kills. Worked excellent. I hit a shoulder on a Blacktail buck and it did bloodshot some meat losing a front quarter. My fault. Bad placement. 2 years ago I started using Hammer bullets in my 20" barrel 308 here in California. I've killed 2 bucks, 1 hog and a black bear. The Hammer Hunters are awesome! My favorite mono for sure. I switched my 300 win mag to Hammers, my 25-06 and 270 Win. I'm a meateater so I can't help but love the Hammers the Accubonds and then the Bergers. Accuracy at 100 yds the Hammers are easy to load up and shoot bugholes. At 600 yds Bergers are the most accurate as they have the least wind drift. Hammers and Accubonds tie. I think you have a winner with all 3 bullets but be mindful of keeping those Bergers off heavy bone at close range. They will all do their jobs if you do yours. [/QUOTE]
