[QUOTE="six pack, post: 2478900, member: 69627"] There’s nothing wrong with the Partition…it was a good choice and probably one of the all-time best for hunting. I would not think twice about them in the future and it’s a perfect match in your 7mag for elk. The problem with Partitions is many people don’t understand how they work. They will have a caliber diameter entrance and then violently expand while dumping a great deal of energy in the vitals as the petals fold back. You then have the base as a flat nosed FMJ continuing for deeper penetration which is why some think they didn’t expand as they see a caliber diameter exit. If you think about it, that’s still as good or better than bullets that are not designed to exit. Happy hunting…..I wouldn’t change a thing. PS - if you want to be sure a cow elk drops in her tracks, shoot her in the neck or head. [/QUOTE]
