    Accuracy will depend on the rifle and shooter to some degree. Suitable impact velocity from 1300fps to 3200fps.

    This is a starting lineup for their Accubond range, more cals/weights are in development and are apparently being distributed in 100 count boxes so should be a better price than their 50 count predecessors.

    The older Accubonds were let down a bit by their on game performance of the 160g 7mm offering at lower velocities and a few guys shied away from them, these should lift the Accubond back into favour.

    I would be keen to try them in all calibers. I have some older Accubonds in 338 caliber, 300 grainers ! -and by jove do they smoke redskins !

    If we can believe the BC on the 7mm Accubond 175g projectile, and its lower impact velocity suitability, then the 180 Berger (G1 .659 G7 .337) is history.

    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
