6 of one, half dozen of the other. Both are great shooters. I’ve owned both. The question you have to ask yourself is, “Will you use it enough to justify the difference in cost?” The Accura has a few refinements that the Optima does not but if it’s something you’re only going to shoot a couple times each year, I doubt you’ll see enough difference to matter. Now, if it’s the last ML I was ever going to buy and I’d be using it fairly often, I’d spring for the Accura.
I keep desperately hoping that one day someone will call me "Sir" without adding "please calm down" or "you're causing a scene."

The optima works great for me, didn't feel the need to up to the accura. Got mine at dunhams a few years back - believe it's the optima v2 package. included konus scope has held up very well.
Mine likes 100gr of white hot, 777 primer & 295gr aero-tip copper. The 245's weren't as consistent for me.

I have an Accura v2 and love it. I don't consider myself a great shooter but with 110gr settled charge of blackhorn 209 powder and a 245gr aero tip power belt ,I shoot a consistent 1 1/2" group at 150 yards and as low as 3/4"

I have the optima v1, mom in law has the accura v1 both are great shooters. I'm shooting 90 grains of blackhorn 209 with a 300grain 45cal hornady xtp(non magnum) and harvester crush rib sabots. Off the bench mine groups right around 1 1/2 inch. J
