Target on left is 90 gr. Accubond out a 6mm #1B at 3240, the right target is my 30-06 with a 165 gr. Accubond at 2940. Straight 6x Leupold on the 6mm and straight 4x on the 30-06.

90 gr. Accubond went through 4 jugs and out, hit next row over and cut that jug and was found as shown.

30-06 and 165 gr. Accubond. Sort of a torture test as I hit a couple inches lower than I wanted and took out the particle board, and it went into jugs and still took out four of them.

The 165 out of my 30-06 at 400 is the top bullet. The lower one is from my son's 300 WSM at 500 yards! I drilled the jugs perfectly and it went through 5 and stopped at 6 like this.

I had enough left to try a 6mm 100 gr. Partition at 500 and an E-tip at 500 out of my son's 6mm. I hit each row of jugs perfectly but darned if I could find the bullets. They slipped out after going through 4 or 5 and I even had plastic on the ground behind but could not locate them. Maybe they are still going? :)
Better put the bullet pictures in. Pretty good performance I would say.

Great tests and thanks for sharing all of this info, btw, how much milk do you drink?
I'd be drinking a lot of milk to get that many jugs! I use water and these only cost 89 cents each so it's pretty reasonable to purchase them. That's 89 cents per gallon of water at Safeway. Once I catch an e-tip, a Partition, and another Accubond at 500 then I will be done. It's fun, cheap, and I'm getting some really good practice in as well as seeing how these Noslers perform at different ranges. Try it with some other bullets and we can do some comparisons as Nosler are all I shoot.Quote:
