Hammer Bullets

[RockyMtnMT]

We have now become official LRH sponsors. Now I can speak freely about our line of mono metal bullets.

We had an incredible 1st hunting season with Hammer Bullets. Taking 25 big game animals ranging from wolf to moose. Results were all good to exceptional. I've got lots of pics, just have to figure out how to get from various devices to here.

We are making mono metal lathe turned bullets of a drive band style. We patented our drive band design which is parabolic in nature. Because of the curved surface of the bands, bore contact is minimal reducing engraving pressure significantly. We dubbed this design as Parabolic Drag Reduction Technology. PDR for short. The PDR design allows seating depth freedom anywhere on the bearing surface just as a conventional bullet. Along with less engraving pressure the PDR design has less drag in flight due to the fact that there are no "flat" areas along the bearing surface to impart drag. The bullet in effect has curved surface on it's entire length.

At this point we have tested bullets from 6mm up to .338 cal. We have hunting bullets in deep penetrating, high weight retention, and a frangible line. We are still under construction of our web site. It will be up soon for taking orders.

As I stated in earlier posts, we will always strive to make the best bullet possible. And we intent to do it with the help of the LRH family. Together we can have a terrific product to offer.

Thanks to everyone for past and future input. We will do our best to take care of you all.

I look forward to checking out your website! Good Luck going forward.

Definitely interested, but curious as to what these are made of... ie solid copper like Cutting Edge,or solid brass like Lehigh? Best of luck!

We are using pure copper. Pure copper is the most difficult to machine, but it works best for bullets.

I'll be happy to test for BC if you'd like. Email me if interested.

What's the minimum impact velocity you recommend for the bullets to open?

Waiting patiently for that website addy so I can order a box or 2 of 30 caliber 160'ish and 185'ish pills.....

Any 20 cal bullets in line? Getting into varmint hunting and have a 20 practical built.

What weights in 338? Sounds like another option for my 338 win mag.

Hoping for about 3 weeks. Hopefully less.

At this point we feel pretty good about 1800fps. This is the most difficult ballistics to test. So far this year hunting we were unable to get a truly long range shot. The longest was 650 on an elk. Dropped where it stood.

We have a 260g that has some good testing, and is pretty much ready to go. Need to shoot it long for drop in order to get a reasonable bc for you guys to start out with. Also one that is designed at about 290g. this one would need faster than standard twist. Still will be some testing for this one.

We have done a little bit of work on a .17 for the same thing. No final product yet, but would guess that the .17 and .20 would be pretty much the same.
