Nosler Partition .30 Cal Rifle Bullets 170gr Round Nose

The Nosler Partition is a .30-caliber, 170-grain round-nose rifle bullet (Nosler part no. 16333) built on the dual-core design that has been the benchmark for hunting bullets since 1948 and the cornerstone the entire Nosler company was founded on. The fully tapered copper-alloy jacket ruptures instantly on impact, curling uniformly outward, while the dual-core design ensures rapid expansion of the forward core as Nosler’s integral partition wall keeps the rear core intact for continued penetration. The round-nose profile is built for tube-magazine lever-action rifles, where a pointed bullet isn’t safe to load nose-to-primer. Each box holds 50 bullets.
