[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2173953, member: 63925"] As BB and others have stated, the Hammers perform differently. You will be faster thus more inherent energy. My .270 Win build coming up I plan on using the 156 HH and will not be surprised to see 3100 fps+. Your 1300 ft lbs is about 750 yards with this setup. Even in my .243 a 80 gr HH is clocking over 3600 fps and zero pressure observed. You can naysay these numbers but too many shooters are achieving same results. In my 300 WSM, 166 HH are pushing 3300 with RL17 and 196HH in my 300WM over 3200. All these loads were also averaging 1/2 MOA. So not to hijack thread, 117HH in my old .270 is at 3300 with 24" brl. I am looking forward to shooting this in a deer reduction hunt this fall. The .270 long neck is perfect setup for longer heavier BC bullets in a properly throated rig. I have some 160 Partitions I plan to try just for giggles too. [/QUOTE]
