I have some 143 HHs heading my way for my 280 AI.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Green Tops here in Virginia carrying them. Picked up a box of 152gr Shock Hammers to try in the 300wsm.

What twist is your barrel that 152's looked appealing in 300wsm?

Do I still have 90m to buy?

Ordered 100 hammer hunters 124gr 6.5mm with a couple minutes to spare.

1:10. I lost some speed cutting the barrel from 24” to 20” and was looking for a mono that I could get back up to ~3200fps. This and the 150gr ttsx fit the bill.

The 137 would really move. mtmuley

I was looking at the Hammer site last night and discovered that I have a collector’s item — an unopened box of 30 cal 152 Hammer Hunters! They aren’t listed anymore.

Not sure why. Be a great bullet in .06. I made an inquiry. mtmuley

I thought it might be a good bullet for my Remington 700 KS in 300 RUM. It is a fairly light rifle and lighter bullets are certainly more fun to shoot in it.

I settled, maybe on the 168. 26 inch barrel will zing that bullet. mtmuley

I used them. I talked to Steve about it a couple years ago when he discontinued them. His statement was that the 152 was one of the few, if not the only, bullet to cause problems with the expansion they were looking for. Not the 137 or the 160, but the 152 specifically. For this reason, they opened the tip up to 2mm to what is now the Power Hammer with the same bearing surface.

I know I have the 152 at just over 2900 in my .3006. I had excellent penetration, with perfect fragmentation and shank retention weight of about 85 grains on the one animal I have taken. That was about 24 inches the long way through a sheep, finding the shank in the cape.

Live technical talk with the manufacturer is rare. mtmuley

Fingers crossed I can get 3k with my dad’s M70 carbine ‘06 with them and Varget. Was getting the speed with old Federal brass, but not the accuracy.

Rifle is getting bedded and I got some Lapua brass on a bulk buy from Midway, so fingers crossed the accuracy improves with it.

I bought a slug of .264 sample packs from 85 gr to 110 gr last week and lucked into this.
