[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1664706, member: 13632"] I lost more elk meat by a LOT of pounds shooting Accubonds than I have ever lost with a Berger, I've blood shot elk from the front shoulder to the tail with an accubond while being able to eat withing an inch of the entrance hole of a Berger. Meat loss is exactly why I shoot Berger's or similar bullets, one bullet hole through every animal with minimal blood shot and with maximum lethal damage to internal organs. It's always obvious when someone has not actually put a Berger bullet on game because they just are not explosive on the entrances, I typically see a little hole and maybe the start of some blood shot right at the ribs and a little around the edges on an exit. No one would hunt with a bullet that didn't do a better job than the one they were using, so many guys use the Berger's because they flat out work, Berger never marketed as a hunting bullet till guys started telling them they had one of the best hunting bullet out there. The Accubond, Partition, Scirrocco all looks way more meat on the entrance because they expand and drop energy before even reaching the vitals messing up meat, no thanks, I'll keep shoot in Berger's and packaging more pounds of meat!!
