I'm liking the 110gr accubonds in 1/4 bore.
The other bullet that interests me is the 100gr TSX.
If for some reason I decide to use something other then the 110gr accubonds in my .257 then I'll try the TSX's

Check out Swift Scirroco, 25 cal, 100 gr. Match grade accuracy and super lethal. Very high BC also.

I have one that loves Berger 115 gr VLD and they have performed well on multiple deer. If you dont reload you can buy them from HSM
Never to far, Just grab another minute!

We took 3 deer this year with a 117 gr Sierra Game Kings.  No bullet failures, so I'm happy with the bullet.  Not as happy with the 1/4 bore though.  I had a good hit on my deer, and it didn't flinch, then walked about 50 feet and fell down, they slid about 250 yds....  I think my bigger rifle would have dropped it on the spot.  But hey, it worked.  Oh, I have the same rifle too, and am getting 1" groups at 200 yds with it.  Darn accurate combo.  I'm going to try some accubonds in it as well.
