Jacon, as far as accuracte, ABSOLUTELY! I have several rifles that will shoot them into little bitty groups, and have shot them a bunch and they remain accurate all the way out to 400 yards, which is as far as I've shot the rigs I mentioned.

The loads are very similar, just varying brass, and of course the COL for each rifle. In both cases, I am something like 30 thousandths off of the lands. The powder charge is 56.6 grains of Hogdon 4831 sc, CCI LR benchrest primers, and one is in WW cases, the other is in Norma cases. I don't know your goal for use is with the rifle you're contemplating, but I can tell you that the 140 grain Accubond shot very similarly to the MK 135, just a touch less powder.

Good shooting--Don

Jacob-I've run them a fair bit in my 270, R22 is/was what I used.

They were very accurate and flat out nocked the crapola out of the lopes and deer I shot with them all the way to a hair under 500 yds.
