There are some Partions for sale in the Classifieds. Wonder if that's a slightly different model?

I'm surprised at you, JB. The Partians only work properly and achieve escape velocity if you've done a flux-capacitor retrofit.

I would use partitions, they are very accurate in my Winchester.

In an AR platform Leheigh has some interesting offerings. Need to look to see if any are for lower velocities or maybe you should give them a call.
Of the two you mentioned I think the Partian may actually be softer for initial expansion and as MD pointed out will give the deeper penetration but they are very close and the AccuBond may tear up more critter on it's way through. I am shooting 250-260 grain versions of all three and they all perform well. I have yet to find a bad bullet in 375 caliber. As some one mentioned the 235 Speer is darned good for the price and especially at the lower velocities bear worthy.

I would think the 200gr FN from sierra would even work for the op's application. No need for a partian or accubomb...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
