Updated Partition bullet

Yep, it’s called the accubond. Theres simply no longer any need for the Partition design with bonded cores and controlled expansion jackets.
The Accubond is a great bullet, and I have killed many animals with it.

However, in my opinion, there is undoubtedly still a clear place for a Partition. But I admit I am partial, as the Nosler Partition is probably my all-time favorite big game bullet. They have done everything I have asked of them all over the country, and that is across many years.
 
Well Federal added a tip to its Fusion line. Why not add one to a partition and streamline it a bit. Be a winner in my book as long as it remained not bonded. While we are at it, add a tip to some Bergers please.

Most of my rifles shoot partitions well and I really like how they perform. I’ve often wondered if they would be more accurate if there was a grove cut around the outside mimicking the partition, to help it swage to the bore, like many mono’s have gone to.
 
I shoot 140 grain Accubonds out of my 270wsm. Deadly. I wouldn’t hesitate one bit to shoot a partition either. Last elk I shot with my rifle was between 470-480 yds. Quartered to me and hit her just in front of the right shoulder. Bullet went through and broke her left leg. She fell right there and then got up and stumbled/fell 30 yds downhill and stopped.
