[QUOTE="GLTaylor, post: 2678603, member: 111593"] Pilsner, Welcome to loading Hammers. Has your mentor ever loaded Hammers before? They are very different from lead cup & core. If the answer is no, both of you need to do some reading first. Go to the Hammertime Forum and look under Reloading. Several good articles on developing a Hammer load and how to load them. Most run much lighter bullets at much higher velocity. 180s are probably way too heavy, but you do you. Be sure to scrub your barrel down to clean metal before beginning loading hammers. Get all prior fouling out of your barrel. Also, for your reference, go to Hammer Hunter Load Data ( or Absolute data) on this Forum or Hammertime. You'll be surprised at the velocities you can achieve😄 [/QUOTE]
