RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

There are several types of premium bullets available. Some of them are every bit as dependable as the Nosler Partition jacket design. BUT, NONE of them will kill your game any deader, or any faster, at all ranges, than the Nosler. This has been proven in every hunting area all over the world, for at least 50 years. The fact that there is still any room for doubt or controversy over this bullet is a source of great wonder, amazement, and amusement to me!! <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

Keep yore powder dry!!

RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

I wonder what these &quot;experts&quot; think about the fact that anytime a bullet is evaluated, its performance is ranked on how it compares to the Nosler Partition. In my opinion, the Partition is the best bullet for anything above mule deer, up to moose, or the big bears. There are some bullets that penetrate deeper, such as the Fail Safe, but for expansion with penetration, I think it's hard to beat the Nosler. Smaller than mule deer, the partition is unnecessary, and too expensive for me to use... but I'm sure they would work splendidly.

...oh, and Skeeter, this is a VERY good topic... the fact that most people disagree with your &quot;experts&quot; should tell you something.

Anyone that would make the comments your outfitter friends made about Nosler Partitions has no credibility on bullet selection. As a matter of fact those comments are so far off that I would seriously question their credibility on any hunting related topic.

&quot;If you can't change your circumstances then you need to change your perspective.&quot;

RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

a ballistic tip I might believe this about, but saying this about a partition is crazy. My advice is to try not to be in the presence of one of these people if a firearm is present. Guns and people without knowledge are a bad thing. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

I have never heard anything bad about partitions so I really don't know where these &quot;outfitters&quot; are coming from.

RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

Yes, guys I do have my own mind and don't take everything said as the truth, law or whatever. In fact this is one thing that I always disagree with them on, but my hunting experience with nosler's is basically 0. Thus I come to you and you have responded and I thank you.

To the comments that these guys are Dangerous. I say why? Just because their experience and opinion is different than yours? Really....common on guys! Some of the guys are &quot;self proclaimed&quot; know it alls, and frankly most they say is deaf eared by myself. I am afterall no stranger to the world of hunting and at that I have been very successful, so I too have my experiences and abilities to rely on. I do however have a passion for the sport and always search for more knowledge to keep moving forward. This being said a couple of these guys are the most down to earth guys you'll ever meet, with no ego trips to speak of. I frankly have meant and seen more &quot;EXPERTS&quot; in the local gun shops and on many of these sites, that make me say what? But b/c their opinion or views my differ from mine does not make them dangerous, morons or what have you. To suggest I should discontinue my relationships with them b/c you think their bullet knowledge is less than yours....is equally laughable. I don't know any of you personally, so why should I jump on your ban wagons! I do however respect and appreciate your knowledge.

Thanks For the record I do agree this bullet has no shortfalls in my mind and would have no problem using it in hunting situations.

No hate mail please, I just don't like the fact that I should disban myself from my buddies who don't agree with your opinion. This is Mine!!!!!!

RE: Nosler Partitions?
 

skeeter - take it easy. My remark at least was very tongue in cheek thus the <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> Do I think your buddies know much about bullets if they are preaching this - No; but hey like you said that is just my opinion and we all know opinions are like * everyone has one.
