Very good.... good eats, good hunt, good bullets.

In my 280, I shot 160 gr partitions a LONG time. found very few even in elk. Found one partition from the 280 in a deer and one elk after 25+ years of hunting and shooting elk and deer. Both from almost full frontal hit and both found back again the pelvic bone.

Tried some 160gr. Accubonds and started to find bullets all the time in elk and deer. Wider mushroom on bullets, more energy put into game.... without break-up. I like it cool

Got brave this fall and tried the 150 gr Btip from the 280 on elk, acted just like an accubond, but the jacket and core were found separated but laying together.... After plowing from the last rib up 'going away shot' to break opposite side shoulder and stop again the hide. Bullet failure, not in my book smirk


happiness is elbow deep in elk guts.
