Gday
Well where do we start ?
for me this is somewhat personal & please fully read to understand the full merits of my position but also pretty confident my writing skills will let me down again so just know this is straight from my heart
I guess this one is also a good start
@cohunt put up so far is partially correct imo
First part when you see no hydraulics occurring you'll understand hammer haven't gone "good enough is now enough " no the terminal results have gone backwards & that's not only by me your seeing a lot more see & not accept nothings changed but those guys are also not just a dead critter & a lot fear to speak up due to the backlash wether from Steve or supporter club is definitely occurring & plenty of pm on this even prior to my so called hammer hater or whatever I've been labelled with these days
but it goes deeper than this for me & others that were in on trying to help improve also but seperate things again that I'll not go into as they can speak for themselves
The issues from my part are pretty simple you can't ( or shouldn't imo ) advertise things that didn't occur or try to cover up what not only I have seen ( yes others have also the first batch of polymer out of the mold that hammer uses or other tip polymers prior to the mold & all documented and some of that is even from the hammerboys themselves
Then taking that to the next level again
that ultimately are life threatening & then go a step further put my name associated with that pill or pills in my case or assumption of it @ the very least
( a interpretation by some of myself being hammers " main tester " has been posted by some individuals here & more to come on that later )
So what does this have to do with anything
For those who are just after a dead critter pretty well nothing but if your after the quicker killer The tips today do not have the terminal results of the original tips & original polymers just like the no hydraulic in the pills today & the minimum working impacts has also changed & it's not a little in some cases as plus 300 fps impacts increase is needed to get to just a working pill point & more importantly once you get into the DG side seconds of impact to tip count for a lot
So now what happens if heaven forbid a person is injured or killed due to using these pills ( others exist )

Now let's not clutter this anymore & add terminal pic results that factually dispute this is the case & look @ it from a potential litigation position
I'm not getting thrown under a bus on A / if a incident occurs & found that the 450SH failed to give adequate penertration ( which is factually true & easily proven & I've seen this along with the hammerboys on the 456 SH that was tested in Australia @ time of launch note it was not the 450SH in the pic A /
but subsequent tests on the 450SH by myself & others since also showed it failed to adhere to the advertised description in pic A
Yes I'm not standing by a pill that is not a DG pill that doesn't adhere to what it's advertised as even without a incident but on the small chance of a incident my legal advice was clear your name
I note a warning on load data pages exist yet why on no DG pills
Yes people expect testing has been done to back the claims up or are we at the crossroads of don't need to test & can put out anything & we can whack a label on it
I hope not but certainly looking that way less the warning label in the A&B pics
Now pic B /
This description is easily proven wrong as no shedding pill ( nothings been made yet ) that will penetrate " as well as a solid " now a poor solid yes but a good solid no & most not even close & that's still not even getting into the countless buffalo that have been lost from the assumed nose over of these profile pills off the ones that were finally recovered after the autopsies revealed the issues these nose profiles exhibited & the hammerboys are aware of this & was relayed to them numerous times by not only me prior during & after their trip to Australia
Yet this false information is now broadcast as per pics A&B , plus others that is along the lines of this also that I know of so where does the full extent stop
So yes that's my grief with hammer yet i still love some of their bullets & use them with total satisfaction yet I'm expected to say all is ok & leave myself open to a slight litigation chance even after the hammerboys sell their company & that leaves morals out of this & how one would feel knowing the facts on the pills is falsely advertised
Now to
@jessej part of less than the 5% will stand by you if you gain a enormous fortune
I totally agree & if one understands me as my mates will do & some in the Tasmanian dairy industry are aware of I not only stand by I handed the key to the wealth for a few individuals on once a day milking among other things yet not much information will be found on me & how I shaped the oad milking system in Tassie & also now Australia & never accepted anything monetary ( I've got a few bottles of rum , beam & wine as a token of appreciation ) or more importantly notoriety as I honestly hate the stuff & quite private as some know but I've been dragged into this place & was original HT when I was a member & now has me questioning once again why I even bothered ( yes some will know I've voiced my concerns before mainly on HT of having to so called tow the line of what others want to see or hear )
I was no different with hammer & never asked for a thing but push yes totally & was happy just finishing up my testing career with them but things have changed as many have caught on but numerous times I put out just " tell me to move on or let me know & I'll move on " or words to those effects but nothing so I just kept pushing & showing terminals & storytelling ended up being the name of the game about me , I didn't see that coming that's for sure
It's not dismissing what some hammers are capable of as it's pretty darn good others pretty poor but all will kill & why I'm on a different track than most I get yes I don't just look @ a dead critter & my level of needs is pretty high
But the truth surely isn't that hard & truth is one I'm glad I've got to know some of you but my rabbit hole is calling for me to return & I'm going back to it don't worry about that but I also feel I'm somewhat obligated to cut through the BS & stop the Chinese whispers
So hope that answers some questions & not raise anymore
Cheers
