I just ordered 25 bags of blems from SPS.

The 160 AB at 3k from the 7mm Rem Mag is the best combo possible.

Change my mind.

I won't argue with you on that one. My pick as well.

I’d agree with that. It’s been really good to us with the Mashburn, Rem Mag and 280 Improved.

I too bought some AB’s from SPS but they were .277-150’s. I have been using R26 with them in my 270W. They go around 3000 from my 22” barrel.

Actually your load should be very effective on about all BG worldwide.

25 bags oughta hold you for a while. Did you still get the $13 flat rate shipping for all those?
It's sure a good bullet for the 7 Mag.

There is always one in the bunch but I would pick the same weight Partition. I never shoot past 450 yards anyway.

Ideal? It sheds about 30% of its weight on impact but it's OK.

I think the 155 Terminal Ascent (if you want high BC+velocity and weight retention) and 175 A-Frames (if you want OK BC/low velocity but incredible terminal performance) are both more useful personally. But there's nothing wrong with the Accubond.

Do they have heavier AB. Like 175?


All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Hey, I load for two and I’m down to my last bag.

I check the website twice a day and good thing, they weren’t listed this morning.

Cabela’s has them right now; not too much more than the SPS price in fact.

I don't think you can go wrong. I like the 160 Trophy Bonded Tip better, but they are difficult to find.

If I hunted bigger game than Texas puny whitetail deer and pigs, I’d agree. I load 140 Ballistic tips for mine.

Does that make the 140 AB perfect for the 7-08?

$40.99 vs $29.99 is a little more than not too much more.
