Hammer Hunter in 270?

[Vortex!]

I'm using the standard h4831. If I would've known more about it I would've gotten the short cut version.

Moderate meaning you're not likely to have any issues. You should get good case life, reliable performance, etc. A good family car kind of load.

H4831 is kind of the standard .270 load that everything else is judged against. When I loaded for my son in law this summer it's what I picked.

Remind me are you using the short cut version.

I used 56 grains of the short cut with the 145 Hammer. I could probably get 2 more grains in, but this was working well. Just for reference on the the short cut as it relates to case capacity. Actual case capacities will vary as well.

Has anyone here shot 145 sledge hammers. In a 270 wsm or win. With RL26?

My barrel is a 1:10 twist. Will that stabilize a 140?

Look at that bullet on the hammer website. It tells you the minimum twist rate there.

Hopefully after almost 5 years, he has figured it out.

Look at the Hammer Hunter Load Data post on this Forum or Hammertime Forum. Over 300 pages of member shared load data.
The data so far shared on the new HHT (tipped Hammers) is also posted on the Hammer Bullets Forum.

I just realized how old this thread was. Oh well, sometimes old info can be the best into.

I began load development with the 124 HH for a Nosler M48 1-10 .270. Nothing spectacular but had just began. Got a deal on another brands 129 gr solid, so am loading those now.
I load the 169 HH in a 28N with great velocity and accuracy. No doubts about the bullets for me.

Yep, I got it figured out. Got the 117gr sledgehammer with 60gr of h4831 behind it. .75 moa and chest popping performance on deer.
