[QUOTE="JTH, post: 2662925, member: 59647"] i would think H4350 is going to pressure out too soon with the 195. I’d be looking at H1000 or N570, RL26 would be another good choice. I’ve got the 195’s going 3050 ish in a 24” barrel 300 PRC with N570, and I believe this to be a slower barrel. I would think 2900 would be possible in a 20” barrel, maybe more in a fast barrel. Comparing a 10 mph wind drift of the 181 Hammer at 3090 vs the 195 Bulldozer at only 2900, at 500 yards the hammer drifts 14.3 inches vs the bulldozer at 12 inches. Obviously the difference grows at greater distance. I think your choice should be based on how you intend to use them. I love how the hammers perform terminally and the speeds you can get out of them (for 500 yards and in, the lighter, faster Hammers are my choice due to terminal performance) but can’t ignore the high bc of the bulldozers (verified by shot drops at 600 yards) when shooting long range in windy Western states.
