In my .270---130gr Winchester BST
In my 30.06----150gr WInchester BST
In my .300RUM-----Remington 180gr Swift Scirrocco
I will say, I like the Accubonds better. I am probably going to switch to them this year after cleaning two bucks side by side from TX that were shot with one of each. Both bucks were hit perfectly but the Accubonds seemed to do more exit damage than the BST's did.

I do worry about the folks that talk about knock down power and those that use more power to supplant less practice.
Exactly. Like I've said here before, there's not a deer living that I'd second guess a shot on with either my 22-250 or .243 up to 250 yards because I know exactly where that bullet is going to be when it reaches the end of it's journey!
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

Accubonds are great bullets albeit a little bit pricy for target practicing. I guess what I mean is I don't care if the bullet I'm shooting at an animal cost $10.00 each, but I do care when I'm practicing at the range! And since I do shoot a lot and want to shoot targets with the exact recipe I use when hunting it would get a little expensive to shoot some of the really top end bullets out there! That is why I have taken the time to find extremely accurate loads in all of my deer rifles using the Game King Bullets.
