2nds or Cosmetic Blemished: All Nosler products are hand inspected prior to packaging. Every bullet and every piece of brass is searched for imperfections to ensure that every piece meets Noslers strict quality standards. Products with physical imperfections and deformities are scrapped, while products with only cosmetic blemishes are labeled as 2nds.
The benchmark for hunting bullets since 1948, Nosler’s Partition® bullet is the cornerstone upon which the entire company was founded.
The Nosler Partition® is designed with a fully tapered copper-alloy jacket which ruptures instantly on impact curling the jacket uniformly outward. The dual-core design assures rapid expansion of the foremost core while Nosler’s integral partition supports the expanded mushroom allowing the enclosed rear core to remain intact retaining more than two-thirds the original bullet weight for deep penetration. The Nosler Partition® special lead-alloy, dual-core provides superior mushrooming characteristics at virtually all impact velocities on any game.
