[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1606769, member: 78056"] If you're worried about the tips on Partitions (or any soft point bullet) flattening out from recoil on the magazine well, just hack 'em off even with the copper jacket using a razor blade. Maybe 3 or 4 grains loss in weight, no change in accuracy but you might lose a point or three of b.c. And they work as usual. Had it happen at the range, bent a couple over pretty good after topping off the magazine, got out the Leatherman tool & fixed 'em! Both shot into the same group, so no worries. The front portion of a Partition is pure lead, the base I don't know. Never had one turn around & seperate from the jacket. I've only heard two complaints regarding Partitions, 1. They just won't shoot in some rifles (personally, I've sold rifles that wouldn't shoot them) and 2. At shorter ranges they sometimes work too well. Had a buddy in Tucson pop a mid sized coues at about 50 yds with a 270 Wby with a 130 Partition and it totally destroyed 1 shoulder & a few other bits. Poor little thing was a mess! Sure didn't go anywhere, tho! Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
