Does anybody have any experience with 142 gr. Winchester long range Accubond rounds? From what I've read on the box, they will expand down to 1300 fps which is about 12-1300 yards if I'm not mistaken. This past year I went on an elk hunt out in Colorado with the Hornady 143 gr ELDX bullets which only expand out to about 600 yards. I never got a shot off at one due to not being able to get close enough. I am really considering using the Accubonds depending on performance. I am confident out to about 800 yards and wouldn't hesitate to take a shot at that distance if I knew I couldn't get any closer (depending on conditions of course). My gun shoots these very well. I am also open to any other ammo suggestions. Just wanting to maximize the effective range of my rifle.
