Nosler Partition .308 180gr Spitzer Bullets
Nosler's legendary Partition bullet in .308 caliber, 180 grains. Dual-core design delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for hunting. 50 rounds per box.
The Hunting Bullet Standard
The Nosler Partition has been the benchmark for hunting bullets since 1948. This .308 caliber, 180-grain load represents the cornerstone of Nosler's reputation for reliability and performance in the field.
Design and Construction
The Partition features Nosler's proven dual-core design:
- Fully tapered copper-alloy jacket ruptures instantly on impact, curling uniformly outward for controlled expansion
- Integral partition supports the expanded mushroom and prevents jacket separation
- Enclosed rear core remains intact, retaining more than two-thirds of the original bullet weight for deep penetration
- Spitzer point provides excellent ballistics with a .474 ballistic coefficient
- Special crimp locks the bullet securely to resist deformation under magnum pressures
Performance Characteristics
The Partition's dual-core construction ensures rapid expansion of the forward core while the rear core maintains integrity for deep, straight-line penetration. This design delivers superior mushrooming characteristics at virtually all impact velocities, making it equally effective on game at close range or extended distances.
The gradual thickening along the bullet's axis controls expansion uniformly, whether impact velocities are high or low—a critical advantage for hunters who may encounter unexpected shooting situations.
