I'm curious too. I never could get those pretty Accubonds to shoot in my 25-06s (OK in .30 caliber). At least not as well as the Hornadys, Sierras or Bergers. I use 100g for deer and have for the last 40 years. I use the 115g Berger for long range (500 yard and beyond) because of superb accuracy. I would use a 117g Hornady for elk if I had to but personally really don't use the 110s. I like the speed of the 100's if deer and antelope are running and they work fine out to 500 yards which is about my .25 caliber shooting limit anyway.
My 100 grain and my 117 grain loads are just about 1 hole loads, I just can't get the in between bullets to shoot. My buddy who shoots a 25-06 has the same problem. I think I have the problem solved, the 110 grain bullets go on the top shelf behind everything else out of the way.
Strange, I couldn't get 100 gr to do squat in my 257 wby. I run 69 gr rl-22, 110 AB, 3.25 COAL, WLRM primers, WBY Brass. No overpressure signs out of a 24" VG I get 3445-60ish. This load has stayed .5-.75 out to 400. Consistently out to 300 at 400 I get a bit wobly but not the AB. I know pronghorn are easy to drop but this bullet combo is amazing on coyotes and pronghorn. It does so well I considered it for elk, I woke up and changed my mind;)
Just for can't leave perfect alone sake I am experimenting with 72-74 gr of H1000 because it is very consistent in my 300 wby. Figure might as well see if I can use 1 powder for both, if not rl-22 is perfect for the 110 AB.

Sarge, will this be a deer load? Oughta be quick.
Sarge01,
Let me know what you turn up. I never had much success with 7mm Interbond nor the 110 Accubond in my .257 Roberts.
The Accubond is very accurate in my 257 Roberts but the load would be pretty mild in the Weatherby.
