Trialed some of 180gr Protected Point Partitions over Varget earlier this year. Result were satisfactory out of my 1899G.
I don't believe Partitions are ever a bad idea.
However, I am hunting with basic 150gr Hornady's over TAC this season.


Imagine your grave on a windy winter night. You've been dead for 70 years.
It's been 50 since a visitor last paused at your tombstone.....
Now explain why you're in a pissy mood today.
