better all around

[big head 1]

what is a better bullet for hunting and accurecey? in a 270 win bolt. barnes 130 mrx or nosler 140 accubond? i shoot only colmbia black tail up to 600 yards.

For that specific quarry or any other for that matter I'd go with the Accubond, or even the HPSP Interlock. Either bullet will perform well farther than the 600 yds you mentioned.
I've shot some XBTs but for reasons I can't remember I went back to the Accubonds.

Just my 2 cents.

I would say the ACCUBOND because I have yet to get the MRX bullets to shoot decent or hear of any one getting good accuracy, not even decent. ACCUBONDS will kill just as dead and actually hit what youre aiming at.

Just my 0.02

i'm with Meichele, i've never heard anyone talk favorable about the mrx bullets. on the other hand i don't think i've ever heard anyone say anything bad about the accubonds. blacktails are pretty small. a ballistic tip would probably work well.

My vote goes for the accubond.- <usually very accurate, and great terminal ballistics in general.-

I have no experience with the MRX bullets,but the TSX or very accurate every bit as accurate as the AccuBond or the SMKs in my experience with them........
