hornady interbond vs nosler accubond vs nosler partition

[gdolby]

Good day all, anybody tested these 3 against each other? If so what did you find out? cant afford the barnes or swift bonded bullets wondered if the hornady or the acuubond was worth leaving the partition for. Thanks for your reply and have a goodun.....Bill

What are you planning on shooting?  I can vouch for the NP. I have no experience with the other two however, everything I've shot with a Hornady bullet fell down so I wouldn't hesitate to use the bonded version.

I've had excellent accuracy with all three of the bullets you have asked about.  But I have only hunted, so far, with the Noslers.  Have had excellent results with very quick recovery of the deer I have taken.

I've used both NP and Accubunds on deer sized game.  Probably 15 or more different animals.  I actually don't see a heck of a lot of difference in killing power, though accubonds are somewhat more accurate.  Having said that.......I'm going to use heavy for caliber ballistic tips on deer sized game, accubonds when my BT supply runs out and partitions on big stuff like elk, moose, bears, etc.

I've used the Hornaby interbond in 165 grains and then the 165 grain Accubonds in my 30-06. Both shoot very well but the Accubond is a bit more accurate in my Winchester Model 70, 30-06. The Nosler partitions are slightly less accurate than the Interbonds and Accubonds but not enough to make a difference in a hunting round. I wouldn't hesitate to use any of the three for a game load. I've taken deer or pigs with all three.
