Good to hear thay open on antelope! If it will open on them im sure it will on a small southern whitetail . If i understand right antelope are really thin skinned game ?
How is the h4895 with temperature swings ? Iv been really tempted to try it but varget seems hard to beat for temperature swings !
But h4895 is labeled under there extreme powders same as varget i think ? Pretty close in burn rate I think also
Only thing I didnt like about the imr4895 was it didnt seem to like a major temp swing. Where as varget i can hog hunt in the summer and deer in winter with same load . Granted, I didnt spend a lot or as much time with 4895 as I probably should have. I was given a lb of it to try long time ago...
Id hope so as much as thay cost lol..
I've just always heard bonded bullets were too tough to open on stuff like small deer . Maby that was true back 15 years ago

I was thinking the accubond cause its tip wouldn't deform as much . But at Short ranges it probably wouldn't matter much. I just wasn't sure if the accubond would expand much at all on smaller game size like our deer here
So after doing a lot of reading which I probably shouldn't have done lol
Sounds like the accubond is kinda like a bonded partition with a tip ?
Either way im torn between the partition and accubond...
Our whitetail deer here average about
100-120lbs...
I want to make high shoulder or base of...
So if I load the bullets to book/mag length and go through a range of powder charges.
Atleast one load should produce a group 1 - 1.5 inch at 100 yards ? .
Personally I want a the cold bore shot to constantly land within 1in at 100. But 1.5in definitely acceptable as i realize its an automatic...
Probably a 3x9x40 in 30mm tube from zerotech . I had a few leupold before and the zerotech is clearer and brighter than thay ever where near dark . Half the price . I have one on wife and my other 308. They have taken a beating and still in pretty good shape.
Hopefully itll like the partition bullet. I thought about the ballistic tip originally but its kinda fragile if hits bone . I need them to drop right there, if thay get in the river there gone
