My thoughts are, after using them for almost 40 years, that they are the best of both worlds. They shed weight, sending shrapnel throughout the target that helps kill animals quicker, all the while staying together to make a very good, penetrating bullet. Other's have been trying to play catchup for 60 years now. The accubond, at least IMHO, performs much the same.
Most naysayers will state that you don't "need" them for smaller, medium sized game. Fact is they kill the crap out of those too.
