[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1526425, member: 7999"] I don't have time to read all the responses, so I apologize if this has been considered already. I'm thinking the bullet did as it should have, but the cow was quartered away a bit. Thus causing the bullet to miss the front of the lungs on both shots. May even have exited in the long neck hair and the exit wound was not noticed in the gutless method. As a pure copper bullet maker I think the Partition is as good as a lead bullet can get for performance on game. Lead sheds in a different way than copper. It tends to liquify rapidly and spread radially until vel slows enough to stop the lead from disintegrating and then the retained portion moves on. The Partition guarantees the retained size and shape. It's a good bullet, just not sexy and new. [/QUOTE]
