[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 574257, member: 1007"] AMAX = expansion at 1300 FPS (maybe less). Interbond = expansion at 1800+ FPS. Yeah. The AMAX will blow the Interbond out of the water at extreme ranges. Period. I will totally agree with you about the Interbond, ACCUBOND etc....versus the AMAX at close ranges but never LR. Especially since most of my hunting loads dont have hyper velocities to start. If I used the 180 Interbond for deer in my 308, I am limited to about 550 yards due to the velocity requirments to open the bullet. The 178 AMAX will get me well past 800 effectively. I say effectively because the AMAX will 'consistently' open up at very low velocities where as ACCUBONDs, Interbonds, X bullets etc....dont. Again, short range = one bullet, long range = another. Many others here have been killing things at LR for a long time too. They (and me) recommend what works also. That said, have you ever tried them on medium game at LR? Well, have you? [/QUOTE]
