[QUOTE="rooster721, post: 2686131, member: 40654"] Those factory Nosler accubonds will be very accurate, good feeding cartridges for factory ammo. They always shot well in my 264's. I've had 3 of them over the years, current one's been rebuilt 3 times and remains my favourite. I shoot a 129accubond LR handload over Retumbo at 3230fps or so, through a 24" 5r Benchmark. I'm someplace around 800 rounds through that one now and it hasn't faltered a bit. Pretty well shoot the accubond long range exclusively in it. Some guys say the ABLR bullets are finicky in their rifles, but mines been terrific with them.. I'm stocked up well Before I rebarrelled that gun, I shot mostly 140vld's, but wasn't happy about the way they fed, and didn't care for their explosiveness on flesh. Guy still gets some degree of explosive with the ABLR's, but its designed with a little more integrity through a broader velocity window than a Berger vld is, and I've legitimately found them a far better choice through that wider window of velocity's and distances downrange like is claimed. It's design is better on slightly tougher skins and thicker gristles than the vld reliably performs through too-- they WILL open, and do-not pencil** Goodluck though, whatever bullet you settle on... 264wm is a hands down favourite of mine, been shooting one since the late 90's, and it's a great cartridge [/QUOTE]
