[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2196791, member: 7999"] We test all of our bullets down to 1800fps for proper terminal performance. We have neve tried to see how low our bullets will go. Once we have good impacts at 1800fps or lower we stop testing. It is the only place that we inflict our opinion on our customers. We feel that 1800 fps is a good min for standard high power cartridges, for good clean kills. The 152g Hammer Hunter would be one that I would stay inside the 1800fps threshold. High sectional density bullets open up easier at lower velocities. The 152g Hammer Hunter bullets is one of tougher ones at low vel. When in doubt about our copper alloy we use the 152g HH as a test bullet knowing that if it opens well at low vel all the rest will. [/QUOTE]
