better bullets

Over the years Ive had many standard grade bullets fail to stay together. or theyve expanded excessively. My experience has been limited to whitetails and the bullets are any known brand, so I moved on to the partions many years ago and do not look back. The terminal performance gives full pentration at virtually any range, the wound channel is more cylindrical in shape with a moderate exit wound, usually only about an inch. This gives a good blood trail if you need it, but doesnt bruise an entire shoulder into garden mulch. Expect this performance at 10 yards or 300. The little bit it costs extra for the "premium bullets pales when compared to hunting licences, scopes and any other stuff we use. If the added 20 cents per bullet prevents the occasion performance failure and subsequent loss of an animal then its darn cheap. The standards are great for targets and varmits when softer termuinal performance is desired.
