You may also use regular LR primers for more progressive burn and lower pressure peak (using more powder). It is not uncommon to be able to burn 3-4 grains of powder more before reaching pressure😀

Just_ jon, I'm at a loss. The N560 was wonderful in the 26 Sherman Mag? I did use a bit more crimp? But that shouldn't make that much difference?

Just john, Look at the data for the 26 Sherman Mag. Close cousin for the 6.5-300 and a bunch faster, with same bullet. You will find slower powders don't do as well with Absolutes. (I did have a 30" barrel)

Easy. Go to Hammer Hunter Load Data on this Forum or Hammertime. Also data on Absolutes and the new HHTs. Just do a search for the above. Over 400 pages of load data!

Smiths frequently stamp an identifier and a serial number (theirs) on the bottom of a barrel (out of sight) to identify the work as being theirs. I know mine does.

Eric Cortina and F Class john have some info videos out, I believe. Both trim & point

7 RUM, 22-250 AI, 26 Sherman Mag (300 PRC Imp necked down to .26. Also 243 AI. 4th bbl on 243, have fire-forming bbl for 22-250 AI. gonna need another bbl for the 26 S Mag soon.

Go to (search) Hammer HHT Load data here or on Hammertime Forum. There's data for 4350 and 4831. On Hammertime, it's under Reloading. Enjoy.

Both bans uncalled for in my opinion. Nothing derogatory, inflammatory or argumentative? What's up with this?

Morning Floyd! Thank you. I found some locally. Only bought 1 lb. (Not like me). It was $87.99/lb!!!! Hope this isn't the direction of the future. If so, I'll just do without!!!

For the comprehensive load data sheets, go to Reloading on this Forum and search Hammer Hunter (or whatever bullet you're interested in) Load Data. Or go to Hammertime and also look under Reloading. Hammertime is easier than here.

Yes. The load data tables are updated at least monthly. Current version is Jan of this year. Update dates are posted at the top of the spreadsheet for each bullet type.

FINALLY got my action. It's at the smith's now being built. It's a long action magnum. Looking forward to shooting & testing.

The load data is also posted on this Forum.

Welcome to the Forum! Go to Hammer Hunter Load Data to get an idea of possible velocities. Also data on Absolute Hammers and Hammer HHTs. Be conscious of twist requirements and you'll likely find lighter bullets than you're used to work very well.
