The front core on the Partition stays with the jacket during penetration, as a bullet slows they tumble which wipes the lead off. The front core is usually found in close proximity...
I noticed at thread, on this site, where a guy took out an cow elk with an accubond. The bullet was in two pieces. Is a tougher bullet needed to pass through bone, even on smaller critters, like whitetail?
I know the partition is suppose to break in half.
Maybe the e-tip will be better?
Yes!! Yes!!
I usually take deer at under 100 yards.
I was looking at a box of federal factory for trajectory results. It looks like 300 yards is the maximum it'll do and 7 inches low. So if I hold the horizontal cross hair on it's back at 300 I should be ok, provided I can dupe the load.

I figure if it's true that the bullet can get through bone broad side
than I'm in good shape. Other than broad side shots... we're looking at
throat shots, neck shots, chest shots, back shots, common sense
shots, on the fly shots would be a neck shot and could be done
with proper follow through...

Whatever bullet you decide to go with I think the key to success will be shot placement, as with any caliber, and bullet construction second...
