[QUOTE="catamountsierra, post: 1244885, member: 79865"] I have been following that thread because I hope to use the 162 grainers in my 7mm-08. The general consensus seems to be that they are a good bullet, but can be pretty frangible at high velocities or real close ranges. At the same time, I think those problems seem to be developing at impact velocities greater than 3000fps, so they may be more of an issue for those using them in the magnums rather than the more standard cartridges. I still haven't gotten to shoot any yet; I am still waiting for my head to stop hurting after a car accident before I try shooting. I know if I had 6.5 I would be looking at the ELD-X or ABLR as my go to bullet. The 140gr Accubond works well in my 7mm-08, so those would also be a good candidate in a 6.5. [/QUOTE]
