Posted on the Nosler web page is a discontinuation notice for the 45-70 300 gr Partition! Need to understand why, this is an awesome bullet.

Greg Nolan":jpmnnjk7 said:The Hornady Leverevolution bullets have been available for reloading a while now and they have probably helped to make a dent in sales. I believe the price is a lot cheaper also. And to be quite frank, a bullet going 1700 fps at the barrel and much less at the animal probably doesn't need to be a Partition to hold together reasonably well.
We may see some bullets being dropped due to the lead bullet restrictions also as time goes on. I'm guessing Nosler has some new products in the R&D stages that may replace some existing bullets and offer innovation as dramatic as the AccuBond was.
I don't suspect it's as easy to come up with a revolutionary new product as it was when the Partition was born. Especially with the leadfree restrictions. Barnes has done it with the MRX but they cost too much for the average reloader just like the Swift A-Frames if you plan to shoot often. IMO
Good Hunting
