Its ballistic performance certainly earns this round the right to have the phrase “Long Range” in its name twice. Thanks to its perfectly centered polymer tip, drag-reducing tapered base, and tangent ogive that promotes the ideal seating depth within a chamber, this round’s 168 grain AccuBond LR exhibits a soaring 0.626 G1 ballistic coefficient in flight. With that kind of stat such a bullet can follow a flat trajectory to any distance, and virtually ignore wind deflection on its way there.
But the AccuBond LR doesn’t excel at anchoring big game simply because it’s accurate. Its gray polymer tip is perched over a chasm of a nose cavity, into which it forces itself down throughout penetration over a wide breadth of velocities. Its terminal expansion is especially wide thanks to the bullet’s thick jacketed boat tail base, and its bonded jacket ensures the AccuBond LR doesn’t burst into fragments before it can reach a large animal’s well-protected vitals.
Winchester really means for you to take this ammo on expedition. Its nickel-plated brass case will resist corrosion as it weathers rain and humidity, and the low-friction coating also helps a bolt-action to feed and extract more reliably.
