[QUOTE="gunner45, post: 376401, member: 9746"] I'm thinking of switching to accubonds in all my rifles after my experiences this year in one gun. I took delivery of a 7STW toward the end of hunting season and without much time to work up loads settled on H1000 and the 160 accubond. Out of 15 shots at game, it was 15 one shot kills from a little over 100 yards to 650 yards. Are there bullets out there that have higher BCs..yes. Do I think it matters..no. I am very happy with what I have now. One shot was 475 yards in a 20 mph crosswind. It hit where it was supposed to according to my tables. I know on paper and at greater distances, other bullets should work better, but this is a hunting gun and it preforms like I want in a hunting rifle. I know 650 yards is not considered long range by some but it is for me. And I have confidence that when a longer shot is presented, it will be up to the job. I like to get off paper and on game as soon as I can. Tiny groups at whatever yardage at a range don't impress me. Dead animals do. [/QUOTE]
