[QUOTE="Lou270, post: 2830446, member: 5352"] Fixed this as misread.. So, from what I read the HH had similar start pressure as a cup and core bullet. The AH had lower pressure. This info does not support any claims of higher velocity with hammer hunter bullets though the AH would be little higher. As for start pressure decreasing with jump that is commom for any bullet and reason you need to be careful seating into lands. Think of Weatherby Freebore as example of this There was a thread a while back comparing a sierra (i think) bullet to hammer hunter where getting higher velocity from hammer with same powder charge. I said that was not good data nor likely at same pressure and was booed down by hammer crew. This post 100% backs up that was bogus info in that post where hammer always gives higher velocity.
