• Flat base Spitzer profile gives a strong bearing surface in the case neck and barrel while still offering a sleek nose for reliable downrange performance.

• The balance of sectional density and ballistic coefficient makes this Partition ideal for common 30 caliber hunting distances where you need both reliable expansion and enough penetration to reach vital organs from varied shot angles.
