In a swamp
Pulling the ol LaserJet out to chase game out west. Anyone use the 257 here? I am getting a cow elk tag so I was thinking accubond. This rifle wont shoot Barnes. Anyone use the accubond on anything with a bit of density to it ? Did it go straight through or bust apart and turn on bone? Anything appreciated. I got bigger rifles but I think its plenty and it is a special rifle to me and want to use it.

If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

I shoot accubonds, tried barnes. just not very accurate. The accubonds are outstanding. better .bc than the partition. Id use the accubond personally.

One of my favorite rifle rounds in the entire world. Make sure to get your seating die extra-properly set up. Because that rounded mag shoulder can be tricky, and start on the lower side of your powder range and work up. The pressures are really high. I only resize and shoot 1-2 times. Send any of the Barnes pills down it and watch things die as if struck by lightning. 100-120gr.
