Hammer bullets picked up by Weatherby !!!

Now I'm wanting to build a 30-338 lapua improved with a 12 twist 30" lilja with 3 inches of free bore. Stuff it with a 110-115 grains of 4350 under a 124 HH and blister something. Or is it the whiskey talkin.
No no you're on the right track for sure.

Forget the lapua….30XC for the win!!

If I can get a 120 Barnes to 4050 fps out of my .300 win mag in a 26 inch pipe (and I can)…:I wonder what a .30 xc with a slow twist (even slower than 12) with a 34 inch pipe running hammers could do?
 
Commercially available propellants will only expand so fast. I'd say you'd be there with the xc.
 
until you eat a bolt... I don't play that game; I buy a big enough hammer for the job to start with...
Good grief, while I want everyone to stay safe The primer will blow and excess will exit the exhaust relief port long before a bolt will shear a lug, just another reason lots of folks love Hammers

I was talking a hammer in the figurative sense, not the brand... I suppose it was a poor analogy in this thread...
 
Congrats guys!

All the hammers I've tried worked above my expectations on the ease of tuning in a sweet spot. Placed another order last night. My wife loves her Weatherby Camilla Mark V. I am just not into the Weatherby cartridges due to the exclusiveness of ammo.
