[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 664034, member: 30902"] Joe my issue with the partition and similar bullets is that unless they hit heavy bone, they tend to simply punch straight through a deer doing very little damage. Now for heavier bodied game they perform pretty well but are not a LR bullet due to the flat base and low BC's. Picking the right bullet for the job is really important. Also you get into the problem with a lot of novice hunters who dont' even realize they've made a fatal shot and the animal goes down after a 50-100yds run and is then lost because the shooter didn't realize they hit it or hit it fatally and thus fails to even attempt to track it.
