However I've run 168gr Accubond LR's through a bunch of whitetail and Antelope at this point and am nothing but impressed. Ranges have been as close as 25 yards to 500, box shots and through muscle/bone and they did what they were supposed to. I've recovered a few and the all expanded and held together very well. I would have zero nervousness about hunting elk with that bullet and if I drew a moose tag tomorrow I'd use it. "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take"- Michael Scott
