I'm impressed by your ability to accept all inputs without adverse reaction. Well done & hang in there.
The AB is a great pill for close up ranges (0- 300 or 350 yrd) and larger game, but at 5 - 600 yards you'll find its probably too tough, being a bonded projectile) & may pencil thru an animal with out doing much internal damage (unless you strike bone). Animal in this case may escape a long way before succumbing. Effect may be more exaggerated on smaller/lighter game. For longer range you'd be better of with more frangible pill like the old 162gn AMAX, now ELDM or X. or 160gn Sierra TMK's, or Berger 168 VLD hunting or 168 Classic Hunter. As a side note, Nosler typically overstate their BC's.
