Both work fine. No need to change.

Personally, I'm a big fan of Barnes TTSX and LRX. No one in my group has ever recovered a Barnes bullet, dating back to the original 'X' bullets. I've put two TTSX lengthwise through mule deer.

Have never used a Partition on game, although I have a box of Federal Premium 160g 7mm RM with 17 remaining on my ammo shelf. They just weren't quite as accurate as other loads so they've been on my ammo shelf for decades.

I've also driven a 140g North Fork the length of a deer at 400 yards so I don't have any problem with a 140 for elk at that range.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
