where would you place the terminal ascent and partition now in comparison to

also what bullet weight's have been good to you
I have not been able to locate component Terminal Ascent bullets to load but the design appears to be excellent and their predecessors have a great reputation. I always had excellent penetration with Partitions and the usual 2/3 weight retention on the ones I recovered. I have only recovered two LRX bullets since switching to Barnes, and both are exactly as advertised- mushroomed perfectly, great penetration and the usual 98-99% weight retention.

NP’s used were 6mm 100’s, 7mm 160’s and 338 cal 250’s. I mainly shoot the 145LRX from my 280 now. This fall I will be using 175 LRAB from the new 7 PRC stick.
