I was disappointed in the Nosler AB. I had a huge bull soak up three 180/AB all good hits and he didn’t even react to the first two. Just leaked a little blood. Interlocks are 2-3 steps and down. 190/Inerlocks in my 300 rock their world.
Interlocks work pretty damned good on elk. Massive lung destruction. Don’t knock em till you try em. I do have a full box of 180 Interbonds I am going to try in my 300 Weatherby this winter.
My 300 Weatherby is a SS Model 70 Winchester. 26 in barrel. Someday to be a family heirloom. It’s odd but sometimes we take a 7mm Rem Mag or an 06, but for some reason we see and kill more elk when 300 goes. We know it’s crazy, but we have fun with it.
My son and I have together shot many elk, and deer over the years. We reload everything except shotgun shells. Started reloading 40 years ago. The elk we’ve shot were mostly with a 300 Wea., using Partitions, Accubonds, Sierra GK, and Hornady Interlocks. Partitions are great, 180/Accubonds...
