Looking at the latest crop of 6.5mm long range hunting bullets . . . what holds up to high speed impacts?

[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1990588, member: 10178"] I have shot over a dozen deer with the 130 gr Nosler Accubond out of my 264 Win mag at 3350 fps from as close as 25 yards clean out to a touch over 500 yards and it reacts the same. Goes in, even through both shoulders, expands and holds together taking out the vitals and exits with a thumb size hole. I have only recovered one bullet shot length wise from front edge of left scapula rearward and was found against the smashed ball joint of the right ham on a big buck. Bullet weight was 87 grs and was a text book mushroom. I have never had a deer do more than stager or spin in a circle before going down for the count. Most have looked like the ground was jerked from under them. [/QUOTE]
