Thanks everyone, I'm going to run with the Barnes and see how it goes.

I've never seen or heard of anyone complaining about the terminal performance of the Partition or A-Frame.
But be aware that at closer ranges or hitting heavy bone, the nose may come apart down to the partition. (For those that complain about weight retention)
As others have mentioned, the Accubond performs well.
But you don't need a bonded bullet for deer sized game.
In the 7mm-08 a 120gr or 140gr Nosler Ballistic Tip is really hard to beat.
Accurate and good terminal performance.
The only other bullet I've seen out perform it is the 140gr Berger VLD in the 7mm-08.
If I HAD to shoot monos, Hammer or Cutting Edge would be the only bullets that I would choose.
I'm experimenting with the Cutting Edge MTH 130gr this year in my 280 Rem.
Accuracy at the range has been good so far.
I'm anxious to see it's terminal performance.
130gr MTH compared to a 150gr Ballistic Tip.
