[QUOTE="500yd, post: 703675, member: 27428"] This forum is "longrangehunting.com", not "averagejoehunter.com". Lead tipped spire point bullets, even the boat tail models, have lower ballistic coefficient than their plastic tipped semi boat tail brethern, lower long range velocity, and much more drop at range. Thus most of them are not suitable bullets for the serious long range hunter. This is why very few people on this forum recommend them. The Accubond is simply a NBT with a bonded core. So Lefty has recommended both a poor BC lead tipped bullet and a high BC plastic tip bullet in the same breath. [/QUOTE]
