Hammer Hunter

[Bassfish1952]

Yes the lack of load data does prove to be a bit intimidating. Depending on how much time you put in to shooting & reloading this summer, you may evolve rather quickly into a rather experienced reloader. If you are able to interpret pressure signs by the use of the Magneto speed & evaluating bolt lift, primer signs I am relatively the skill will come relatively quick for you.

I was skeptical on the Hammers at 1st. though with time I have come to understand the designed in advantages that can allow this monolithic perform more so similar th a cup & core bullet design.  I am of the opinion that the Hammer design may be the better monolithic option on the market for the hunting I do.

Yes the price is a deterrent, though my limited experience has suggested to me that They are a very viable option. Lack of load data is a substantial hold back though.

Couple of questions

OAL of cartridge and how far off lands ? 

What FPS were you getting and if I were to use Hornady load data and start at the lowest load possible as a beginner would that put me in safe area ?


Thanks
