[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 441533, member: 9705"] I think the 160 accubond started at 3000 fps is good to at least 800 yds on black bear. I'm basing that on a minimum effective velocity of 1,800 fps. Depending on elevation that could be about 700 to 900 yds. The 168 Berger probably expands at a lower velocity and holds it speed better but I still don't think it adds more than 200 yds past the accubond. At those ranges accuracy is #1. And if the accubond shoots as good as the Berger it's no slouch at long range. Close up I'd take the accubond every time. [/QUOTE]
