Announcing the New Hammer HHT

[3chester]

Sorta thinking, Hammer Bullets could pay somebody there, to put these tips in but, that would make for, an X percentage of rejects, out of every 100. If a guy does em at home, those rejects just become ur practice rounds. Like the DIY rounds if, they'd add Titanium tips option.

I'm addicted to speed. The 75grs HHT 243W easily loade to 3600fps? Holy Sheep dip, gotta get some of those! Wonder what they'll go in a 243AI chamber!! Makes me shiver just thinking about it!

I dont care if my 10 year old could do it .. If its so easy then hammer should be putting them in.. makes consumers happy when they open a box up and know they are right and not damaged! Which in turn takes less time for me (which I dont want to waste any of it on adding a tip that should already be there) to load up and go to the range, which means ill shoot more of them and spend more money on them.

You claimed AL tips are better. Your support is that they can be turned at the same time as the body. The guy that actually turns them says it doesn't work that way.

Your premise is flawed.

Exactly

Exactly

Think they turn em in a lathe, that's why the hole in the tip is dead center on.

I do believe they have mustered the Militia, let's see who else shows up

Thinly veiled hate and hypocrisy popping into a Hammer thread again. Paint me unsurprised...

I dont care if my 10 year old can do it .. If its so easy then hammer should be putting them in.. making them absolutely perfect, keep the rejects down and makes consumers happy when they open a box up and know they are right and not damaged! Which in turn takes less time for me (which, personally I dont want to waste any of it on adding a tip that should already be there ) to load up and go to the range, which means ill shoot more and spend more money on them.

Steve stated earlier in this thread that they have been working on getting a machine to do so but it won't be until 2024. Since people were requesting them he decided to release them early for those interested that didn't mind installing the tips themselves. Sometime next year once the machine gets set up they will all be installed prior to leaving the factory.

The Militants will always find a flaw, regardless

Then you using bullets ( like the old Winchester bullets "Silver Tipped")
surfaces turned in one operation are concentric and as fine a finish as bullet body.....

Nope,, modern day lathe turned bullets with machined aluminum tips. Still Not Concentric.
I deal with concentricity on a daily basis.
Several factors could have caused the problem.
But for me It told me all I needed to know.

Ymmv.

I have installed a ton of HHT tips. So easy even a Sasquatch can do it. Not sure what the fuss is all about. Heck, even @Gingerman can do it so if both of us can do it, its fool proof.

Oh wait the same old P contest again. Yawn, I can ship you some bread and cheese for the "whine".
