130gr bullets and large deer

[Lorgar]

Noslers ballistic tipped hunting bullets have a thicker jacket then varmint bullets and they go on about how they have bonded the jacket to the lead to control the expansion. I haven't used these much but plenty of people say they are a good thing.

You're confusing Ballistic Tips with Accubonds there. Accubonds have the bonded core and jacket.

I don't use them just because they're quite expensive and the regular Ballistic Tips do the job for me. I've used them plenty of times though shooting with a mate who regularly uses them and they're great bullets with excellent weight retention.

Yes, your correct that should be accubond.

I think I payed over $1 each last time I purchased the standard accubond. I didn't buy them again,

Sounds right.

A mate of mine shoots them in his Scout. TBH it's basically because they shot well and he CBF working up another load with cheaper bullets as it's only for hunting a couple of times a years so the cost doesn't really matter for him.

About $1.80 per hand load at the end of the day though. Pricey...
