Nothing iffy about it – it'll flat-out work.
The only IF is whether you're big on saving meat and would rather not work through strawberry jello when processing. whistle

90gr Accubond and 95 LRX is what I've gone to in the .243(s) for deer – due to the above.

I agree. I stopped using BT's in anything over 2700 fps due to the shock damage from the higher velocities. They will definitely do the job but my main interest is in saving as much meat as possible and the the damage caused can easily be prevented by using a different bullet. Accubonds or mono bullets are all I use for big game hunting now. I find POI almost identical for accubonds and ballistic tips so use the BT's for target shooting and sighting in and the accubonds for doing the killing.

I thought growing old would take longer.
