[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 1407584, member: 99519"] From my talk with nosler rep....basically the lrab is an extreme long range bullet......I gave him my numbers and he said that 570 was way to close..and that was 2950mv....very slow for a 7rum...most guys are pushing those calibers way faster....I would hate to see what it would have done in a rifle at 3300fps..... The front end of the lrab is built to collapse..it is built with softer finished(more pure) lead....and the slightly thinner jacket also promotes the front end to pretty much explode....I have loaded many accubonds into many calibers and they definitely give a solid performance...they don't disintegrate....they may not be as sleek as the "super boattail" but they shoot very good...several of those rifles shot one hole groups at 75 yards..2506, 260, 270 & 300wm.... The 2506 accounted for a Blacktail..two shots behind shoulder..I thought first one had missed..second hit an inch away from first..450 yards.....the deer just forget to drop....no meat damage...nice entry....quarter sized exit....second shot buck fell over and slide down part of the mountain....wish it had slide further.... Maybe the lrabs would perform better on critters at lower velocity...but what is low enough to not destroy table fare....and I like eating deer and elk.....way more than any piece of beef.... I know a few guys that were loading 2506 BTs and neck shooting bucks...basically blowing heads off....taxidermist loved and hated those guys.... [/QUOTE]
