[QUOTE="73driver, post: 1560927, member: 36473"] I would say that that bullet worked fine. It made it through both shoulders, punched both lungs I guess and the bull did not move. That the core stayed in the jacket till it stoped at the off side hide sounds good to me and my experience with partitions is they dump the front half of their mass right away, so with the same MV & caliber not sure a partition would have done any different. In my limited elk hunting experience (4 bulls) the three that went down to Sierra GK's where just as dead as the one shot with Nos Partition. BTW the bull shot with partition at 250 yds was angling away where the bullet took him in the last rib went forward shattering his heart and out the front of his chest making a **** big hole and while he didn't move a follow up shot or two finally put him down.
