To me it is clear on this page that the S.H.O.T.S. are not partition bullets. It also appears the S.H.O.T.S. bullets are intended to use for practice. After seeing the web page, it would seem the S.H.O.T.S. would fly about the same as the partitions, and one could sight in a rifle for the S.H.O.T.S., and then use partitions for hunting with minor sight adjustment.

If one already has S.H.O.T.S. in possession, and is going Elk hunting in the fall, sighting in a rifle with the S.H.O.T.S., and practicing with the S.H.O.T.S. would be a smooth way to transition to the inexpensive partitions.
