[QUOTE="scfam, post: 1195076, member: 80956"] I use Accubonds in .257, .277, and .308. I can assure you they will work perfectly. A slightly better bullet for deer or antelope is the Nosler Ballistic Tip. It is a bit more frangible and will make a bigger mess of the deer's insides. Kinda splittin hairs as your 6.5 CM is WAY plenty deer rifle, so either choice will work very well. ELD-x will be fine, but I'd go to the 129 SST if I wanted to use Hornady bullets for deer in 6.5. Nearly perfect. You don't need (or EVEN WANT) big weight retention for deer. Just get the bullet inside and let it do its work. GMX and TTSX not really as good for deer. They would be fine, but the Ballistic Tips and SST are built for deer and the Accubond would be real close behind. Hope this helps. Awesome caliber choice for deer! [/QUOTE]
