[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1645053, member: 54383"] I second the 124 hammer. I switched to them in my 6.5 creed. For reasons stated above. I realized that my limit for distance was within the distance I could get with the hammers. I looked at it two ways. Yes I could hit steel farther with the 147gr but it didn’t have enough steam to make me feel comfortable hitting game with it. I am ok out to 500-600 depending on game. But to be honest if I have one chance for my animals I will always close the distance if I can. Pigs don’t care I’ll try them out a ways. After that distance I bring a bigger gun. I have been very impressed with the hammers in my 6.5. So happy Steve is currently doing load work for my .300 win mag and putting a painkiller on. [/QUOTE]
