[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2234317, member: 105681"] Hammers are really long! They show minimum rate of twist on every bullet on their website and they mean it! Send those bullets back and get some 117 or 124's. A 133 shock hammer will also work for you 1:10. Even though you got the 140's to shoot you should talk with Steve because most likely they are marginally stable and once they lose velocity after a few hundred yards they will keyhole or not expand correctly when they hit an animal. The minimum rate of twist is very important to terminal performance for the Hammer bullets. But those little 117's pushed really fast will astonish you how they kill big animals. [/QUOTE]
