Share Your Hammer Loads

[GLTaylor]

Hi friends,
I just discovered that this thread has somehow gotten corrupted or disappeared?
Please post your new Hammer Loads here as you develop them. I check this site often for newly developed load data that needs to be added to our member load data spreadsheet.
Include Hammer Hunter, Absolute Hammer or the new Hammer HHT loads.
Remember to post your:
cartridge.
bullet weight and type (HH, AH, Power Hammer, Shock Hammer, Jack Hammer, HHT, etc)
barrel length and twist rate (brand optional)
brass brand and # times fired
whether crimped or not
Overall Length of loaded cartridge
primer brand
powder brand and loads/velocities worked up
any range notes (ejector marks, pressure signs, bolt lift, group size, es/sd, temp, etc)

Thanks for your help. Many benefit from the information you share and it saves them in time and components!
Simply follow the format used in the spread sheets for Hammer Hunters, Absolutes or HHTs.

This rifle shoots groups like this very consistently with Hammer Hunter 152 grain (57.0 grains Ramshot Big Game and 166 grain with 61.0 grains of Ramshot Hunter). I barely had to do any load work up. Pretty much the first few loads I tried shoot like this. This rifle really loves the Hammer bullets and load work up was a breeze. I just used my regular 152 grain Hammer Hunter load with the HHT's and it shot like this on the first time. Haven't tried any other load combo.

Hammer Hunter Load Data, (See page 1, Post 8)

OK, folks. Steve at Hammer Bullets has been getting requests for load data on Hammer Hunter bullets. There is an extensive spreadsheet for Absolute Hammer Load Data developed and shared by members on this Forum. Data for Hammer Hunters is on the Hammertime Forum, but it has not been placed...

www.longrangehunting.com

I downloaded the pdf's and they worked. Or did you mean you couldn't edit them to add new data.
