Nosler says that they are replacing the BT with the AB. Basically, the AB is a bonded version of the BT. The Partition is a different animal with similar results on game to the AB. The Partition works not by bonding the jacket to the core, but by using a partition in the middle of the bullet to limit weight loss, thus increasing penetration.

They are a little lower that the premium bullets
but not that much lower. Nosler partitions are excellant for big game.
