[QUOTE="Window, post: 1698594, member: 88485"] Hammers! I received the 181’s from Steve yesterday for my 30-378. I’ve shot the 180 TSX for nearly 15 years with very good results for both accuracy and terminal performance on deer and elk. With all of the excellent reviews I decided to give the Hammer Hunters a go. So last night I loaded up 10 rounds for the Hammer Hunters with the same recipe I’d used for years with the 180 TSX’s.. 102.5 H100, 3.788 OAL that measured 3.040 with the comparator. Tested them this morning with results that well EXCEEDED my expectations!! With a 100yd zero,I dialed in 10.75 MOA and shot a 3 shot group that measured was just over 2 inches at 700 yds. The group was 4 inches high so I dialed back a 1/4 MOA and shot the last seven rounds on a 10” steel plate with the same if not better results. Average FPS was 3290 with a 9fps variation with all 10 rounds. Needless to say, I’ve never had any bullet preform that well, (and I’ve shot them all) much less a hunting bullet. Can’t wait to see how the do on deer here in Georgia this fall and elk and mule deer this November in Colorado. Thank you Steve and the rest of the Hammer team. I’m a first time customer and please keep up the great work!! [/QUOTE]
