Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Undersized bullets question

Thanks, John. I hadn't thought about the exposed rear of the Partition, I was thinking of the copper at the front of the bullet filling the lands as the .224" bullet is squeezed thru a .222" hole.

But your theory is probably right, especially if you get a slightly off bore that's .223" with lands that are .228" (within mfr tolerances). That'd be less copper pushed around and more empty space in the lands to fill, and the Partition might be better in that scenario than other full jacketed bullets.
