I killed a Moose with 170 grain Silvertips. And they lost almost no weight. I don't know what I'd need Partitions for?
I never shot a moose but I killed a bunch of deer with 170 grain silvertips. That was my favorite .30-30 load/bullet for many years.. I still curse the day the bean counters at Winchester saw fit to discontinue them.
