Interbond vs Scirocco

I've loaded up both the accubond and the interbond in my 270WSM. Both are very accurate in my rifle with the edge to the Interbond. I have only hunted with the Accubond so far (Interbond is only offered in 130gr and I wanted something a little heavier) and it was very impressive. Very little meat damage all pass throughs and dropped the deer where they stood.
I've used the Interbonds in the Hornady Light Mag factory loads in 165gr .30-06 for 2 years now in my Savage 110. They havn't given me real accuracy to brag about. Maybe 1 1/2 to 1 inch groups, and they kick like a bastard with that light rifle! They are advertised at 3015 fps muzzle velocity, and I've verified this with a chrony. I wanted something that was solid, shot flat and hit hard because I've had a moose draw for the last 2 years. (bull 2 years ago and cow last year). I didn't want to shoot 180 grain bullets for my mulie hunts. I have a Pachmyr pad on my gun, but it still rocks me something fierce. I tried my buddies .300 Win Mag and he tried my -06, but my gun beats your shoulder way harder. I'm going to try a Limbsaver or a Kick-Eze pad and probably drop to a regular type factory 165 gr or a 150 grain for deer this year. I think I'll have a whack at a bear this spring with the Accubonds to see how they do. I only recovered one out of 2 moose (the rest passed through!) and it was in fine shape. Good mushroom, good weight retention.
I have loaded and shot both the Interbond and Scirocco as well as the Accubond in several different rifles chambered in a variety of cartridges.
I have also killed animals with all three bullets. In my rifles the Scirocco has always been the most accurate followed closely by the Interbond. The Accubonds however have been a different story. While I have shot the Ballistic Tips for years and use them as a yardstick against which to judge other bullets the Accubonds I have tried have only produced so-so accuracy.
As for killing ability I think they are all the same as every animal I have shot with any of them has died.
