I'm trying to decide if my all around .30-06 bullet is going to be accubond or partitions.

Both are fine choices. I'd try both and use whichever shot best AND is available on store shelves. Can't go wrong w/ either one.

They’ve beefed up the BTs a bit. Son shot a 150 hog at 40 yards with 115 BTs from 257 WBY. Pass thru.

Just completed a Nilgai hunt on the King Ranch and took a 500lb bull with a 300 Win Mag shooting the 180gr Accubond. These are tough animals and he went about 50 yes with a double lung shot. Have used these for last 20 or so years and they are flat out accurate and deadly. BTW, this hunt was inexpensive and a hoot.

For those that might not know, the Nilgai Hunt is what has been used to test new bullets for years. One of the toughest animals on the planet.

Post a pic.
