sbhooper,
You've recovered Nosler Partitions that lost 2/3 of their weight?
No,I have never recovered one, but you know as well as anybody, that Partitions are made to shed the front half of the bullet. They also cost much more than the Hornady and that is what I was referring to. A bullet that looks that good after hitting all of that bone, is nothing to scoff at.
Hornady bullets are inexpensive and still perform just fine, even at 300 velocities. You are splitting hairs by trying to figure out if it lost 2/3, 1/2, 5/8, or whatever amount of its weight.
