Phil,
The NP was one of the top bullets in the opinion of PH's I've "surveyed". A-Frame and AccuBond are direct comparables. Hard to go wrong with any of the Tier 1 bullets if it's used as designed.
Jim,
Pretty pix- is there a story with those gems?
Eyeguy:
BarnesBullets.com has all the details. They'll answer the phone when you call with a question too.
Night all.
We were camped on the RUVU river and hunting MK1 and Gonabisi area on a 7 day buff and plains game hunt. We had been asked to provide 6 buffalo and 12 wildebeest for a village. Sometimes you just get lucky. We only took 4 buff and 6 wildebeest because their tractor to haul the meat broke down.
Oh well.
The 470 were head on shots at two different buff in the long grass. Each one took a finishing shot. The solid was found in the hip, the soft was found in the gut.
The 416 were at buff in more open country. The first one was at approx 100 yards, angling slightly away. Shot just hind shoulder, angled through off shoulder, and was found under skin. He moved about 25 yards. The second one was at 75 yds head on where the "V" of the neck joins the shoulder. DRT
The first 300 was on an Oryx, range finder said 242 yds. He was facing away at about 45 degrees. Shot angled from rib cage to off shoulder. Bullet was found under skin. DRT. The second 300 was on a Kudu standing broadside about 250 yds. Shot was just behind shoulder, a little high, hit the spine. DRT.
Now you know the rest of the story
