Maybe the bullets caught the trampoline-skin that's back toward the rear shoulders.

A friend of mine killed an Idaho bull 3 years ago with a 130 gr Accubond from a 270 Wby. Shot was about 150 yds if I recall and he got complete penetration through the lungs. Bull went down right there.

I just bought a box of accubonds to try in my 270, however my go to load is a 130 gr. woodleigh over 57.0 grs. of imr 4831 with a 215M primer and rem. brass. load works well for me. I am not a real partition bullet fan.

I have used the 130 grain Partition in my 270's for years.I have also tried about every factory bullet/ammunition out there in them also.The cup and cores work most of the time but not all the time.My choice by far is the 130 Partition but I am sure the Accubond works just fine but I don't care to mess with what isn't broke. I did try the 140 grain Trophy Bonded and it did exceptionally well but for the price,I'll stick with Partitions.The 140 Fail safes "Failed" just like advertised.  Jayco

Jayco I have thought about just getting the partitions as well because they are tried and proven. I have the stuff to reload the 130 accubonds, but find that I dont have alot of time to sit down and load them so I was looking for factory ammo.

I would look at the 130 gr. Winchester XP3.
I use them in my 270 WSM.

I have killed 7 elk with a 270 and 150 gr partitions. I am sure 130 accubonds would be just fine. I have certainly had friends who have shot several with cup and core 130's, but I prefer to step up in weight when possible with the lighter caliber, 270.
