In fact, some other monos (such as the Cutting Edge Raptor) are designed to consistently lose their petals, which supposedly results in more damage around the primary wound channel. But there are many variables in both animal reaction and bullet placement.
Cutting Edge Bullets do not lose there pedals, they are called "Blades" they do cutting-slicing as secondary projectiles. The base keeps penetrating and will tend to penetrate deeper than other monolithic bullets that keep there "pedals".
Having used Partitions for several decades, moving to Barnes for a couple years, was not impressed with the non-grooved version. Now after shoot close to 200 animals with Cutting Edge Bullets Raptors and Maximus several thousand in to "wet paper media". Only bullets I will ever use will be CEB's, unless something better comes along. I do thinks there will in my life time....
