I'll,have to take you guys word for the superiority of the partition. I've never used one on game. I've always used InterLocs or TSX for African game. I have recently begun to use TTSX or Accubonds.


Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!

They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

The shots you like to take... and the places you're likely to hunt... should influence you choice in projectiles much more than what a bunch of "get off my lawn" guys say on the internet.

Interesting that most of your "tinfoil bullets" are also heavy for caliber bullets shot at moderate speeds (2700-3000 fps). Seems to me that heavy for caliber, cup & core bullets, at moderate speeds have been killing the schitt outta stuff for 100+ years.... but all of a sudden they're inadequate because they're also "high BC long-range bullets".

I bet if you handed JOC a 7 Mag loaded with 162s he'd be aweful f'n impressed with its ability to a) hit schitt.... and b) kill schitt....

Never had a partition fail me. Come to think of it I never had an A-max, interlock, ballistic tip, accubond, mag-tip, deep curl, bear claw, grand slam or hard cast bullet among others ever fail me. Put'r where it kills and chit will work. It's called shoot your hunting loads at distances you plan to hunt in all conditions and figure out how they behave. Know your weapon like it was an extension of your body. What was that old saying? Sumptin' bout fearing a man with one gun. I know, I know, blasphemy in these parts!

Imagine also if you handed J.O.C. a ruger RPR in creedmore, a box of factory shells and mounted a straight 10 x SWFA on it and he made steady hits out to a grand, then told him the whole works was less the 800 bucks......

Jeff O ass shots can be deadly if rightly executed. 😀 If you ever have the unfortunate experience of getting in a gun fight with a chit-bird don't rule out putting rounds in the pelvic girdle. It'll change their channel real quick like. Just a little tip from experience.

I'd love to hear about your experience with pelvic shots....

If you're ever in a spot where or when it's needed you'll know. The pelvis is a very crucial chunk of bone needed for human mobility. Smash it with a couple rounds and things stop all the sudden. People who do combat shooting get too fixed on keyhole shaped targets and don't think outside the box. A couple of raid entry schools and some life experiences have taught me different. Perhaps over beers some day. Jokes on the ass shot thing of course although I've seen it done.

Why in the [bleep] are you shooting something in the pelvic bone?
Are you a special kind of stupid?
I've never purposely EVER aimed at a animals pelvic area.....

Targets hit in the pelvis can still detonate their vest or release a grenade.
sounds like you were just in narcotics or something when you say you did a couple raid entry classes.
Top tier operatives dont just do a few days of courses and join a raiding unit.

Obviously you've never been in a gunfight while raid entering a deer bedding area.... otherwise you'd be pounding Partitions into every pelvic girdle you could find....

If you told him that, you'd be lyin' like a sumbish.......

The RPR is more than $800, all by it's very own self.

I've never tried to shoot a buck in the d.i.c.k. or an elk, but apparently where this guy's hunts deer and elk walk around on their hindquarters.....lol....

Anyone want to send me some Nosler partitions so I can load them up and shoot them out of my .260?
I'll shoot them right next to my 139 gr Scenar's at 550 and we will see just exactly WTF is up with all this BS.
I don't have a dog in this fight but I'll put my money on my "tin foil" bullets as B-rad calls them.

You take what you have and it makes for an easy follow up. If you don't get that so be it. Been doing entries for eighteen years. Not everything is attached to a detonator. Not every war zone is in Afghanistan. Nor requires a military ranking. Ever work in Detroit, East St Louis or New Orleans. I've had my 214 for some time. It's chitty everywhere. No need for further hi jacking.
