There are a lot of 120-150gr hunting bullets I'd feel comfortable with in the 7mm-08, and probably very few I wouldn't, when talking about deer. Same could be said for the .308win with 150-165gr stuff. They sit in a sweet spot where speed, mass, bullet construction, and animal size are generally somewhat forgiving. Having said that, if I was looking for an ideal balance between penetration when shot angles are less than perfect and exit holes/blood when making a rib/lung shot, I would look again at the Accubond. No bullet is perfect every time, and you may eventually run into a really bad angle shot where a TTSX might exit when nothing else does, but you might also have a few more hands-and-knees looking for blood instances with monos and rib shots than you would with a bonded bullet or a cup/core. Pick which tendency you prefer, remembering that they are indeed tendencies, not sure things.
