I don`t use Partitions anymore because deer shot close with a Partition make a mess on a deer at close range the guts are just soup and bullet is destroyed ,that`s why I use Swift a-frames these bullets worked better close range or a long ways out ,Swift bullets are as accurate too, swift 100 grain a-frame bullets seem to work well deer or elk as many of my friends feel too.
I try not to hit guts. Just about any bullet is going to make a mess if it hits a critter in the guts.
actually it was a center lung shot at 70 feet and that 100 grain partition blew up,probably because the bullet was fast and the insides were all soup,i was in a very thick-wet-snowy swamp so shots were very close,it was the only rifle I had up in the north country. >> if you have ever hunted much you would have learned a good bullet in the guts would just go right thru and just make a small hole entrance and exit.
