This bullet held up really well in my opinion. Almost 3200 with a near muzzle speed impact. I think it'll work decent. Accuracy seems to be about like any other bullet I've tried.

I use 129 grain in my 264, and have great results.


Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Thanks Gunner. Loaded some more of them up last night, so they are ready to hit the paper as soon as I can get back out again. If they respond to seating depth adjustments like every other bonded bullet does I am hoping for a quick load for this. Wanna get this sucker out at distance!

But with only a few exceptions the ones I have shot would always go into an inch or so and sometimes way under. But I don't worry about hunting loads if there at or preferably under an inch.


Same here. For me, I don't get any closer than .050" with the bonded bullets and usually end up working back from there to find accuracy. So far, it hasn't failed me.

Now you have me second guessing the 154 IB vs the 160 AB for my do all load in the Montana 280 AI once I get all the 175 NPT's shot up, decisions, decisions. smile

Tried them in my 270 a few years ago. Accurate load was easy to find, shot a couple deer with them and got pass throughs on slight angled shots. I decided deer weren't that hard to kill, so I just stuck with the 130 Interlock I'd been using for decades. I've got plenty 150 Partitions and 140 Accubonds if I go after anything bigger.

Man, any of those will crush most anything. I don't think we could take enough animals between us to tell the difference.

I wouldn't make fun of you if you tried them though! whistle

LOL, got a pile of 160 AB's on the way, if they don't shoot in my 280 AI, the 154 IB's will be next, think I'll try H-4831 SC first.

I'd be blown away if 160 ABs didn't shoot.

Well, let me know when you come back up on comms.

So far I haven't found the load for the Interbond in my MSM. Close, but not quite there yet...

Looking good, I'm thinking really hard on building a 7 Mashburn on an old pre-64 M-70 cloverleaf tang action I have sitting around here, it already has the mag bolt face. wink

That would be real cool. Mines a P64 and I love it.

I'm tempted to try some Sciroccos or Partitions next. I've got a pile of RWS brass ready to roll.

10-4, thinking 9 twist #2 at 26"s sitting in an old Rimrock or new Hightech Specialties stock, midnight blue cerakote all metal with a 3.5-10x40 with CDS or custom cap in a set of DD Leupold rings and bases.

Don't believe a man can go wrong with either one of those bullets if the accuracy is there, that RWS brass should make excellent 7Mash cases, and exactly what I'll order if I go ahead with this build.

I think you'd like that a lot. I'm loving my Mashburn. I used a Legend EDGE, but yours sounds great too.

Nice, hadn't considered the Legend/Edge or even Edge for that matter, guess if a man sent his completed barreled action to McMillan they could inlet for a cloverleaf tang, bed and float it and have her ready to rip.

Give Darcy a call Gunner. He will let you know right away if it's the way to go.

10-4, will do, this old action has had a hole welded up on the lower right rear side of the action and has/had no collector value, it'd be perfect for a custom build.
