Depends on caliber, speed and targrt game

In a 308 bush pig I use 125 accubonds because i am pushing fast to get reasonable trajectory from short barrel

But a 125 BT in a 30-30 because an accubond would be too tough at lower impact velocity

180 accubonds in 300wsm are great on tahr and reds
165 BTs in 300wsm are massive meat waster in reds
