Thanks guys for the comments!!! 1shot.......I have 2 of the three bullets and they look text book for expansion!!! And the retained weight is what I was expecting from the Accubonds!! What has me stumped is the Lack of penetration.....I have shot partitions in the past and was not completely...

Well now I have gone and done it............. I posted awhile back that I had a lack of penetration with my 250gr. Accubonds in my 338 RUM when I was hunting elk........We finished hunting deer up here in Saskatchewan and I managed to crank a decent 6X6 whitetail this year!!! My son also...

I had PTG make me a reamer 2 year ago for the 300 Win mag with a 7mm neck. Man is that one sweet round!!! I just finished the 2nd rifle a Rem 700 with a #17 1-8t Krieger, throated for the 180 Berger Hybrids in a H-S Sendero stock.......waiting to shoot it as of yet!! The first rifle is a Rem...

Thanks JD338........Maybe I was expecting too much out of the 250 Accubond!!!!!! I would guess that the 300 gr. Accubond would be what I am looking for, lower initial velocity therefore lower impct velocity........more weight and moving mass should equal better penetration!!!

Gents: What got me was the, almost identical shot from last year and damn near the same yardage.........I liked the Accubonds for the higher BC and being a bonded bullet I was expecting way better penetration. After this hunt I went home and bought some Barnes LRX 265gr bullets (BC of .575)...

The 8-10" is possible when the shot is coming from an downward angle, and hitting the...

Sorry guys.....I posted this in the .338 Bullets test form then erased it and copied it here!!! Yes the cartidge is a .338 RUM, and the 250 Accubond, and the shot was at 236 yards measured with my Swarovski range finders. I am just baffled at the complete opposite performance of the bullets...

Well Here is a pic of this years elk..... I caught him in the open Flax/red clover field first thing openeing morning........I managed to get between him and his cows and there also happened to be another bull on the other side of him (just to make things interesting)!!!! I was shooting the 250...
