Received my order of the 181gr Hammer Hunters this evening! I'm going to be trying them out this season in my 300AX (300-338LM improved). I'm hoping to see some better performance characteristics with this new bullet over my current load.
My current load is a 200gr accubond sitting on top of a healthy dose of RL33 which nets me 3380FPS and nearly 5,100ftlbs with sub 1/2 moa accuracy. (Kirby builds a fantastic rifle BTW)
Anyways. I'm hoping to be in the 3550fps range with this bullet, which looks very achievable just visually looking at the differences in weight and bearing surface between some of the bullets I have on hand.
Here's a picture of the dummy round I made with the 181 seated to mag length 3.7" and my current load seated to 3.570" along with the 200gr accubond, 181HH and 200gr LRX.
