[QUOTE="SeniorSendero, post: 10254, member: 2287"] Both the Barnes x-bullets and the Nosler Accubonds are excellent bullets. But at extended ranges, there might not be enough energy to reliably expand either of those and they would end up being like a solid projectile. On the other hand, the match kings that may ordinarily disintigrate at close ranges would mushroom reliably once the energy levels drop at extended range. You should really just run your balistics program with your load. Once you drop below say (1800 ft-lbs)? at 'y' distance for your xbt's or accubonds, then that should be your limit for those bullets. After that distance, use your match kings. Ronnie [/QUOTE]
