They have usually been a bit more accurate for me vs the Partition but thats just because i shoot more of them

Ive got a nice stash of Partitions though from Wideners and shooting them into media they are outstanding performers. I hate wasting them on paper. :P

I have been uses them for a while now and get the same results. They open up and become a buss saw.

Very effective bullet.

I think i have a box of the .451 (Colt) 250gr JHP too. They are about $22/100 locally. Their 40-180gr or 200gr are cheap 45x40 bullets. Only about $45/250.
