    130 grain Accubond Available

    I figure I’d develop a load with 130 grain Ballistic Tips, and use that load for hunting with the Accubonds. I’ve never shot an Accubond but Ballistic Tips have been accurate in everything I have used them in.

    I sure hope so. I’ve got the make some range time. I haven’t had time to go lately.

    New Swift Z Bullet

    That is what the jacket on the 175gr Accubond should look like. They don’t retain enough weight for my liking. I do really like this new Swift bullet. If it takes off, and I think it will, it may force Nosler the redesign the Accubond LR to retain more wight.

    Speer deep curl?

    The plated jacket of the Fusion holds onto the core extremely well. I haven’t used the deep curl but the 150 grain GOLD DOT holds together like a piece of chewed babble gum. Retaining 99% weight on that deer I shot with one few years ago with a gold dot dropped where it stood. Double lung and...

    130 grain Accubond Available

    I ordered 650 of them for my 270 WSM. I’m going to finally take ammo in the woods that isn’t a Partition this year. Believe it or not this will be the first time I’ve loaded or used AB’s. I’ve always used the partition. I worked up a good load with the 130gr Partition, so hopefully the AB’s...

    Presses and Impressions

    I've loaded a fairly long time but haven't used many presses. Started with a RCBS Rockchucker, then went to the cast iron LEE "O" frame press. I got the Frankfort Arsenal M Press aa few years ago and love it. It's a coaxial press and loads very consistent ammo. It looks like the Forster but with...

    Opinions please: Springfield Armory Garrison 1911

    I have the Garrison in 45. I don’t have anything bad to say about it. After 100 rounds its action smooths out to as slick as the Kimber it replaced. High quality and it’s accurate. Can’t go wrong with one.

    10mm to 45 Super in Alaska

    Thank you. I don’t have any need for real dangerous game defense loads. Black bear is the biggest I’ll encounter. Your last Power Pistol load is the one that I’ll be testing next. That load with the XTP, really caught my attention. I did forget to say that I needed to buy a barrel bushing for...
