I wonder if the 120 bt is as stoutly constructed as the 130 grain accubond? My tikka shoots both <1"@100yds. But the 120 grain bt travels approx 3k fps from the muzzle and the 130 accubond is 2,800 or 2,700fps as advertised by nosler. I'm shooting nosler and fed premium factory loads.


I guess I like a harder bullet than the bt. If I were you I would just buy the accubond bullets and go hunting, no worries.
