[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1817362, member: 7999"] We run a copper that is a bit softer and a bit less brittle. Both bullets are of the same concept, yes. Our drive band design is more forgiving for seating depth since you can seat anywhere on the baring surface just like a conventional bullet. Not limited on seating by one single drive band. Because of the radius drive bands on the Hammers we have less pressure but more points of contact in the barrel resulting in easy accuracy with low engraving pressure and almost never see any copper fouling. Ideally we want to see a flat square frontal area of the retained shank. Kinda like a flat based bullet fired backward. This is a pic of a 221g 8mm recovered from a blacktail shot end to end. That is the perfect result that we are after. [/QUOTE]
