actually it's funny JD, as soon as you mentioned the 180's got me to thinking.....I remembered comparing the ballistics before and something stuck in my mind that the 180's almost seemed to close the gap (on the lighter bullets) at the longer ranges. Must be because of the higher B.C...

JD......exactly yes, WT deer. I like 150's in an '06 for CXP2 class game.......seems like 180's just aren't required and the trajectory advantages of the 150 are very beneficial. Although your right, I'm sure 180 BT's would really open up quick and will probably shoot tighter...

If you can get the Partitions to shoot well enough I'd run with them (just my opinion). You have to consider worst case scenario (ie. extremely large bull moose at long range quartering away from you, running) It takes alot to bring them down under those circumstances. I feel the Partion will...
