I oedered some of these bullets from the Nosler pro shop 2nd's list. Do they have any advantage over the standard partion?

Nope but they are a darn good bullet.

Don't know, but I sure like them in my .280.

Well, the Partition Gold bullet is slightly heavier constructed than the standard Partition.

It has a thicker partition that is positioned a little different. It also has the steel cup in the rear just like Winchester designed for the Fail Safe bullet.

My buddy used a 150 grain factory load in a 270 Winchester that was loaded with the Partition Gold last year while elk hunting. He shot a large cow elk in Oregon and the bullet went clear through and killed another cow elk standing a ways behind it. Luckily they had a second tag and no meat was wasted. That bullet really penetrates!!

I have heard that the Part.Gold has much higher weight retention than the equivalent std.partitions.

You can also get Partition Golds without the Lubalox/moly coating. I'm going that route next year when I get my moose draw.

My plan for these bullets is to hopefully bring down a local Hogzilla. His weight estimates vary from 400 to 650 pounds. I have seen him but was carrying a 223 and he gave me no chance for an ear hole shot.

I used that exact bullet on a kudu/hartebeast cull hunt and was very favorably impressed with the results. Granted, it was mostly head and neck shots but a bull kudu neck is muscular and thick. I got lots of complete pass-throughs after taking out the spine. The PG seems to me to be much tougher than the regular partitions.
