[QUOTE="Hydra6, post: 3002878, member: 125161"] My PH in South Africa has access to all the Hammer line but he chose 180s in 3006. He favored the heavier weights per caliber. He was well aware of the American tendency to emphasize lighter projectile weight and speed. He and his clients harvest plains game daily - his opinion on what works carries some weight. The 180s were moving in the 2700 fps range out of a suppressed Howa 1500 22 inch sporter weight rifle. I had 166 Hammers in hand to load in my personal 3006 before I decided to take the easy route and just rent. I am sure the 166s will work too. [/QUOTE]
