Nosler Accubond

Has anyone used or heard about this? Ive seen it used a few times and was wondering what everyone thought about it.

Yes. As a matter of fact I just picked up some 180 accubond for my 300 win. mag. I met the Director of Customer Satisfaction from Nosler Bullets on an archery antelope hunt in eastern Oregon. We have stayed in touch over the years. He has recomended the Accubond as a good Elk round. So far I haven't been able to get any better accuracy than factory ammo. I am still playing around with the loads. I don't have any results from actually using one on game, but plan on hunting elk with them next year.

Cool Cool. My dad shot a elk and a moose with the factory ammo. The bull elk was at 280 yards and the calf moose at about 75 yards. Both needed only one shot and the moose had a huge hole out the far side. The elk was a head on shot and it flipped the elk half way over. The bullet perentrated deep at exited about halfway down the animal. The elk was hot with a 300 win mag, the moose with a 338. Federal.

my brother loves the accubond in 200 gr for elk and deer, I personally like the 180 gr accubonds or scirocca II's but they are very accurate from our .300 RUM's and I would recomened them
