The Nosler Partition is a far stronger bullet than is the Deep Curl.

These are some pic - back when i was uing the Nosler... 451-260 for deer and 458-300 for elk...

The 451-260

The bullet pictures show the max expansion of a partition. Then from this add the hydrostatic shock and the continued penetration of the bullet. All of this designed around the fact that over expansion slows the projectile rapidly and reduces penetration.
