[QUOTE="choprzrul, post: 2956482, member: 121411"] 90gr Absolute Hammers in my 25-06 at over 3600 fps have been stellar on my small sample of deer. 4 shots, 4 dead deer. None of them got more than 40 yards from point of impact with one bang flop. Speed kills. Shedding those petals and leaving a blunt face creates a bigger/ better wound channel compared to a rounded lead core traditional mushroom shape IMHO. Also, in my experience with the Hammers, I am seeing way less bloodshot meat compared to lead core. I've seen a far side shoulder that I didn't need to trim any meat around the bullet hole.....quite literally eat right up to the hole! Lastly, through all of the recent shortages of reloading equipment, the Hammers have always arrived in my mailbox about a week after placing the order....availability is a big factor for me. No sense doing load development only to find that your choice of bullet is no longer available anywhere :-( [/QUOTE]
