my brown bear hunter was using a 338UM with factory loaded 300 gr nosler accubonds. it did a good job, but his muzzle brake mucked up my ears!!

It’s not exactly what you are asking, but I load 250 gr Accubonds in mine. It groups well . I’ve only shot moose with it. Performance was impressive. No post shot tracking or packing involved.

How did the ABs hold up on the brown bear

frontal standing chest shot, bullet exited on 9 1/4' brown bear out his back. did not recover a bullet from it. bear made it 350 yards or so before expiring. (with a couple helper shots in the high shoulder)
