Vapodog...i stand corrected, thanks for correcting me! I never knew it was bullet failure because i' ve heard of quite a few cases where the partition came apart so i took for granted it was suppose to, but like already mentioned it has always gotten the job done. The partition has a lot of loyal followers and for a specific task such as a paid hunt for Elk or really big Mulies or bigger game i would call upon it' s services again without hesitation. Like you said i think it' s a mute point for deer because anything will work if put in the vitals.
