I love partitions but they haven't been the most accurate bullet in any rifle I've shot. They're usually acceptably accurate but its hard to make yourself use a less accurate bullet.

You may be right...I'll have to double check the box when I get a chance...

I remember it being significantly higher grains than the norm. 243 bullets

They are pretty accurate in my daughters rifle.

I've been shooting partitions since about 94, and the whole families rifles are sighted in and use them


I'm shooting 180gr partitions in my 30.06 They hit like a sledge hammer and they are pretty damn accurate too.

When I gave up rifle hunting, I was using Hornady 95 grains. Most deer bounced. The one that ran went about 45-50 yards.
