[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2020401, member: 109862"] No experience with either. Do have some 210 ablrs yet to try in my 300. This being said I vote original accubond. This due to numerous reports of underpenetration with the long range bullet when used in magnum chamberings not at long range - this shouldn’t be seen as a shortcoming, it’s explicitly marketed as a niche purpose bullet - long range - except that Nosler advertises it’s optimal velocity terminal performance window very optimistically. the accubond is a true all purpose bullet. And it’s profile and bc is the same (or at least advertised as the same) as the ballistic tip of similar weight. The ballistic tip I do have experience with. Super super easy to work with, no messing around trying to find a sweet spot seating depth or any fine tuning. Nosler ballistic tips and flat base hornady interlocks you can usually just load to standard oal, load a grain under max book, and go shoot if you’re pressed for time. Also they kill things real dead :). The accubond I consider a ballistic tip with an extra “insurance policy”. Can’t recap ever hearing anyone too displeased. [/QUOTE]
