Have you tried the 225gr Hornady SST yet? I have used Hornady bullets in everything from my 22-250 to my .338 RUM and have had consistantly great results. I have personally shot groups the size of tylonal tablets using 129gr Interlocks and 140gr Interlocks in a .264WinMag and 6.5x55 mauser. Both of the rifles are factory model 700's! I shoot 180gr SST's and Iterlocks out of my .300 RUM and regularly turn out nickel size groups using H4350 and H4831. In my .338 RUM I shoot the 225gr Interlock with 92.0 grs of IMR 7828 and have an average velocity of 3148 with a SD of 8. This load also cranks out groups under 1/2 an inch. I also get great results with Swift Scirocco's and Barnes TSX's. I might try using some Sierrsa's this next summer but as of now I have naver reloaded them. I just have never realy reloaded anything for myself that I wouldn't hunt with. I have never seen first hand what a Gameking bullet has ever done on game with any kind of velocity. In another vein I am not a Nosler fan I have seen first hand what their bullets do to game Ballistic Tips & Partitions and have never bought or reloaded their bullets and don't plan to. I don't hold any high hopes for the Accubond either. Just my opinion thats all many have disagreed with me but thats OK.
