BeaverJack thanks for the laugh, I like your attitude your my kind of folk.

As for the bullets I always use partitions on elk. I once accidentally grabbed the wrong box of shells once and took my BT's that I hunt deer with and killed a cow at about 75 yds. Did just fine buts that only time I've ever used one. I've heard some people have problems with them but never have seen it. One thing I have tried though is take a stack of phone books at shoot at em at different ranges, you'll see exactly what your bullet will do.
