[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 996231, member: 10178"] The only way to tell which will be the most accurate is to shoot them in YOUR rifle. I am assuming that you will be deer hunting. The Accubond will work great for long and close up shots on deer. The problem with most of the 140 gr lead core bullets in the past was from the speeds of the STW they would evaporate on the hair before they hit the hide inside 100 yards. I had a couple friends that had STWs years ago and the only 140s they used were Partitions. They liked 154 Hornady and 160 Sierras back then. I use the 130 Accubond in my 264 Win mag at 3350 fps muzzle and it has worked perfectly from 30 to over 400 yards so far. Killed a dozen plus, lost count, deer and all have been DRT. Just remember speed is nice but accuracy kills. :D [/QUOTE]
