[QUOTE="orkan, post: 2594605, member: 25377"] While I haven't trued up a ballistic profile for the Hammer 52's yet... based on the numbers I can maintain about 1,000 ft lbs at 300yds. So it's definitely not a long range big game killer. That's based on the 4175fps launch velocity of the current load. It's down beneath 750ft/lbs by the time we hit 400yds, so it definitely loses energy fast, just like other light bullets. Pretty terrible in the wind compared to an 80gr too. That's to be expected, as it's half the BC. Traditionally, I would see most barrels pick up around 100fps between now and 300rnds. So we'll see if that holds true with the Hammers as well. ----------- [URL='https://www.instagram.com/primalrights']Follow on Instagram[/URL] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/user/primalrights']Subscribe on YouTube[/URL] [URL='https://amzn.to/3txlBnp']Amazon Affiliate[/URL] [URL='http://www.primalrights.com'][IMG]http://primalrights.com/images/signatures/sig1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
