Were I spending the kind of money it takes for a sheep hunt, any sheep hunt, I'd certainly not skimp on the bullet. However, I wouldn't go out of my way to use an expensive bullet that doesn't shoot well either!
If you look at my bullet list, the Partition is at the top, Accubond 2nd, Speer Hotcore 3rd.
The Hotcore is the Poor Man's Partition. Great bullet, though they don't always shoot.
At the end of the day, I bet a guy could spend one lifetime shooting sheep with a Ballistic Tip, and another lifetime shooting Partitions, and never see any difference in either lifetime
