[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2698913, member: 68015"] I test a lot. First thing I do is load beyond published data to find pressure and then back off. In every case, I get more speed with HH and even more with AH. Less bore friction/resistance = higher speeds with less pressure and the need to use faster burning powders. As for match shooting them, I get amazing accuracy with them but at +/- $1 ea. it just isnt affordable. Also, the mindset is with Berger being best and most jumped on that bandwagon. Ive also had great results with hammers when hunting but do miss the Barnes where the petals stay on the bullet. The hammer petals can keep the dentist busy. JMO/E [/QUOTE]
