165 gr Nosler AB for caribou

Was lucky enough to get drawn for a caribou hunt this fall

Anyone have experience with Nosler's 165 gr Accubond?

I'll be shooting my new 300 H&H

You might find the Bears up there that eat Caribou are more impressed with a bit HEAVIER Bullet - if you happen on to one.

Good Hunting and clean 1-shot Kills.

Killed a couple bou with the 6.8 last fall; they all went down and one was a long shot. We have used everything from 223 to 7 mag when looking for moose & caribou.

I'd spend the time locating the big bulls before opening rather than any thoughts on caliber.
