[QUOTE="Kpknifemaker, post: 2438029, member: 107189"] I shoot the 124g Hammer Hunters. Not Absolutes, but perhaps this will help. I've got an OGIVE length of 2.155 that shoot 0.5 to 0.75 MOA consistently in my Tikka Creedmore. Bought a Weatherby Camilla for my wife in a 6.5 CM for Christmas. First time out, shot the Hammers with the same MOA results. Didn't have to make an adjustment. Hammers in general have proven easy to find a good length. On the other hand, some 156 Bergers I shoot out of the Tikka shoot with similar MOA shot poorly out of the Weatherby. Jumping to a conclusion (no pun intended), but seems the Bergers are a bit more sensitive to the jump for the Weatherby. If I want to shoot those Bergers from the Weatherby I will have to start playing with the OGIVE/jump. My point, maybe the Absolutes will be different, but that OGIVE worked for me in my CM. My Hammers in a variety of guns and calibers seemed to be less sensitive to jump than other bullets I've loaded. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
