It's minutely expensive which I don't care too much About. The nicest thing is you go into their website and stuff is in stock and ready to ship.

Sounds like I need to try this.

i have run that 60 partition killed lot deer with it, now i run the 44hammer at 4300 in my 14 twist swifts, wacks deer like lighting

Have you been wacking deer with that 44 out in the 300-400 yard ranges?

Good friend of mine has used the 40 grain Rapter in his 22/250 on lopes a bit.

Back in the day when I was running amuck with a 17 Rem I took out quite a few deer and lopes with the 25 grain hp's that were available as well the 30 grain Barnes original.

We've also used the 40 grain NBT a bit, especially in a TC. It took things out pretty darn quickly as well

So you drop $2-3K on rifle but yet the projectile is where the rubber meets the road so IMO is not the place to back off on shooting the best projectile you can.

I do. Just doesn't happen to be a hammer.

Practice with a second bullet and save the hammers for hunting.

I don't like doing that just to keep things simple and consistent with my hunting rifles.
I do think the hammers would be perfect for my wife and sons hunting rifles. And wouldn't cost any more than the Accubonds they are shooting now.
How deep do the hammers penetrate before losing their pedals?

Killed a mule deer at 450 with the 83 in my 22/6, 300 fartest with the 44s. But 400 be no problem iv shot some good groups at 400 with them!

I'm going to get some hammers for my 22 creed...been stuck on 88 ELDs and 80.5 bergers, but time to give them a shot

 

[dogz]

The 70 Ham's have shot well in my 22/250AI for what that's worth. (8 twist)

 

[dogz]

Pickens, how has the reaction to the impact been? Many of them running at all?

This had become a great, informative Thread for .224 hunters. Thank you to the 'Daniel Boones' with the wealth of .224 kills for sharing your experiences with us!

Any experience with the 22 Hammers in 223 velocities through 7T barrels?

This thread has me pumped about loading light .22 bullets again. How fast do think your 22creed would push 35gr hammers, 4500-4600ish?
