While I would never fault someone for choosing a Nosler Partition, neither do I consider it, for my purposes, the best hunting bullet for a .30-06. Or any other cartridge.
Accuracy is one issue. I’ve never had a rifle where a Partition provided better than acceptable accuracy. Other bullet designs have consistently provided excellent accuracy in multiple cartridges.
Coyote Hunter, My 06’ did not give me great accuracy on all partitions from 180 grain and smaller. Groups were certainly “ok”, but weren’t great.
Then, some of the threads on the fire highly touted the accuracy of the 200 grain partition.... I tried the 200 grain spitzer, and it was dead-nutz accurate!
You might pick up 50 blems from Nosler and give it a whirl.
Cheers to you and yours!
