[QUOTE="GLTaylor, post: 1816405, member: 111593"] Not unlike an earlier post, I have a shelf full of different bullets. I have a bunch of rifles and I like tinkering with them and developing new loads with new bullets. I also hunt deer a lot and live in a state with a very long season and liberal limits. I am also starting to do some crop damage control this year. I shoot a lot of 6mm and 6.5 mm cartridges as they are my favorite. My self imposed limit is 500yds and most shots are less than that. I am a long term fan of Bergers and Nosler AB and ABLR. I tried the Hammer bullets this year to see what all the fuss was about. I haven't gotten past the Sledge Hammers. I now have them loaded for 2 rifles and will develop a load for my newest rifle which I should get within the next month, The Hammers do exactly what Steve told me they would and I followed his recommendation as to loading. Loads easy to develop and shoot great in my rifles. Killed 12 deer so far this year and still have almost 3 weeks to go. All pass through with good exit vents. No bullets recovered. Didn't take any photos, but tissue destruction was minimal compared to standard cup and core bullets I've used. Did I say they shoot well? Group from yesterday attached. From my 6.5C. 6.5-06 Ackley on the way. [/QUOTE]
