Since Nosler no longer makes the Partition handgun bullet for the 454 casull, how about some input on the Swift 265 grain a frame for deer hunting. Thanks in advance guys.

Mike, I believe I`am correct in saying you will use the Swifts in that excellent 454 of yours and like DJT say`s above you can expect great results... That bullet weight sorta makes them equivalent to a 240gr bullet in a 44mag and along with the huge bonded HP/partition at your 454 velocities against a whitetail the only answer is a dead deer at your door.....

The 265 Swift has been my #1 deer bullet in my FA .454 for many years. It has never let me down and has been 100% one shot kills.
