[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1478829, member: 7999"] What you are thinking is exactly how we got into making bullets. I don't mind blowing up gophers into pieces. It violates me to do that to a game animal. The design and terminal performance of our Hammer Bullets revolves around terminal performance without wasting meat, and accuracy. These two things are what matters most. Everything else is secondary. If you are keeping your range under 500y you should look at our Sledge Hammer line. If you are extending your range farther than that, then the Hammer Hunter line would serve you best. Both bullets work equally well on game. The Sledge Hammer line is heavier for caliber and has higher weight retention. They are designed with larger hollow points and designed without bc as a consideration. bc make very little diff out to 500y. The Hammer Hunters have a much longer nose with 1.5mm hollow points (this is as small as will work reliably for terminal performance) for higher bc and extended ranges. The long nose of the Hammer Hunter line can be more difficult to fit into factory magazines, although there should be no problem with the 124g Hammer Hunter in your magazine. Steve [/QUOTE]
