I spend some cash at Shooter’s Pro Shop from time to time. Lately they seem to be “out of stock” a lot. This “huge” sale, for instance: only a dozen various Partition calibers and bullet weights in stock; two on sale. I must be missing something.
50 cents a bullet for a mass produced bullet is nuts, let alone at a "sale" price. They're probably no more uniform than a Hornady sp, and uniform isn't a word used for anything hornady cept if your willing to pay 75 cents each for their new Atip junk.
I use the 170gr Partition round nose in my dedicated .308 hog gun, great bullet. Don't mind paying what they charge because it kills every time I pull the trigger. Sometimes 2 with one shot. But the same bullet is .35 cents at Midway for firsts and .44 cents for seconds here.

Yep, pretty danged expensive. Thankfully I don't need them for anything.

Yeah that $20/yr you'd spend on partition bullets is a huge deal.
