Hammer Bullets

1500 fps and lower. That would effectively extend the range of the 300 Blackout tremendously.

Ok. What twist, what weight apx, and est start vel? How far do you want to shoot it?

We have a 125g that is designed for the 8 twist. Shot drops with that bullet out to 1000 using a g7 bc of .245. Very happy with this bullet.

As mtmuley noted ...

We are using pure copper. Pure copper is the most difficult to machine, but it works best for bullets.

What would you suggest for spring black bear in montana going out of a Remington 260 with 1:8 twist?

We have several bullets that are good for 8" twist. The 124g Hammer Hunter would be the best bc bullet if you are intending to shoot very far. Our heaviest bullet good for the 8" twist would be the 139g Sledge Hammer. The 130g Sledge Hammer would also be a nice bullet for the 260 Rem.

Season starts soon. Hopefully the ticks are not as bad this year as last.

Thanks,

Steve was kind enough to send me some of his good looking bullets to test in my new 338 Sherman. I have been living out of a box waiting for our home to open so testing is a bit more challenging. I loaded up some 260's ahead of 63 grains of RL17 at a coal of 3.500". After chronographing a few, I shot 4 shots at 100 yards into 5/8" at a speed of around 2690'. This was not max and they would probably reach at least 2750'. I considered this to be a pretty good group with zero load development. This bullet should be a HAMMER on big critter! (no pun intended) Today I got around to loading up some 236's. I decided on 65 grains of H100V, which turned out to be a pretty mild load. It was right at 2800' and would probably max at around 2950'. I loaded them to 3.490" coal and shot 5 sots at 100 yards. This load shot right at 1" but I had some pretty bad mirage going on lying prone in the gravel. I feel that this bullet would likely group much better with better conditions and some load development. Either bullet would likely be potent medicine on big bears, elk, and the like. I would like to have done some expansion testing but my living conditions at this time prohibit it. Thanks Steve for the bullet donation!...........Rich
