Hey THR,
I'm planning on using the 150gr Hornady Interbonds in my .270 for elk and mule deer this year. The only problem is that supplies of all the Interbonds seems to be pretty few and far between, and a little expensive when they are available. Since the SSTs and Interbonds have similar exterior ballistics, I'd like to do the first part of my load development with SSTs, then just refine the load with Interbonds. As an additional benefit, I could do most of my practicing with the cheaper SST.
I have read some accounts online that indicate that the SSTs shoot very similarly, if not identically to the Interbonds, but was hoping some folks on THR might have first hand experience. Has anyone used both bullets in the same rifle? Did the appear to like the same charge levels? Did they shoot to the same POI.
I'll of course work up with the Interbonds as well, to make sure pressure levels are safe, no lecturing needed on that point.
