What are you currently reloading?

Finally wrapped up a long term project. Switched any of my rifles I would potentially hunt with to lead free, while also spreading out projectile weights so I have a solution for any pursuit. I’m also wrapping up load development for a 7mag for a friend.

I think you’ll be pleased with the Hammers.

I am, have been for several years now. All I did was fully work out a couple new cartridges; went from 260 to 260ai, added 33 Nosler to the stable, and switched the 30-06 to a 138hht (it was a 160 Accubond previously), while dropping the 300wsm from the 162ah that I ran out of to the 154hht. The 33 already took my first bull this year, and the 300wm dropped a young hunter's first pronghorn this summer. We've killed 3 muleys, 3 pronghorn, and 3 elk with Hammers so far, plus a bunch of unlucky coyotes.

What speed are you seeing with the 30-06? Presuming Varget burn rate?

Its a pretty short barrel, sits right at 3000 with RL16. Part of this project was to switch to temp stable powders too, so I was really happy with that velocity/powder combo and the place that a 138 could fill in my spectrum of cartridges. It shoots really well, and has one of the most interesting suppressed sounds I've ever heard.
