[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 2819297, member: 33159"] I understand that you WANT to shoot the 177, but listen to chav0_12, he's spot on about your twist rate. I have extensive experience with Hammer bullets and I've come to know Steve Davis pretty darn well, and the one thing that has to be paid attention to is the recommended twist rate. Again, Hammer Bullets like to be run at high velocities and spun as much as possible. All the testing shows they perform as expected or better when you do those things. Light and fast has become the mantra with Hammer Bullets. Give Steve a call and see what he says, but I'm sure it will be the same thing we are telling you. As far as your powder, you're in the burn rate of 50bmg or RL33. You will be better served with something around H1000 burn rate. I think20n29 would probably work fine, but don't think you'll get optimal performance [/QUOTE]
