Mercy. $68/50. Not this boy, not when garden variety 150-170 grain cup and cores will continue to kill deer with alacrity long after I'm gone, just like they have done for the last 125 years. IMO the .303/.30-30 is one of those cartridges for whom there's not much point in feeding fancy-schmancy bullets. And yeah, I put my money where my mouth is and use a 190 grain soft cast lead flat nosed bullet at 1850-2000fps (depending on the rifle), the same one I've been using since 1980, and deer die very dead from it.
Would I load those Partitions the OP is inquiring about? Sure, for sh*ts and grins, but I wouldn't hunt with them when employing them at sedate muzzle velocities.
