[QUOTE="kmarsh1966, post: 2661171, member: 116432"] I built a 7SAUM with 24” 1:8 bbl. I have loaded up some 155 Absolute Hammers and can get the to 3200. I looked at going with heavier Hammers both the Hammer Hunter and Absolute Hunter. I bought some 177 HH’s with hope to get them to 2900-3000. That is a tall order I realize. Doing the ballistic charts the 155’s will always have more speed and kinetic energy from the muzzle to put further if using 2900 for the 177’s. My question is which will penetrate deeper. I’m planning on hunting Elk Lin 2023. I don’t doubt either will kill, but does one out perform better than the other. So far I have not recovered a bullet in anything I shot with 6.5 123 AH or 6mm 101 HH. I appreciate opinions or facts from folks in the know and even those speculating. 1000% Hammer Fan boy here. Thanks Kyle [/QUOTE]
