Hammers, Grendels, and 6.5CM

[Revolting Peasant]

So, Hammers and speed seem to be the ticket. About ready to order and take the plunge.
Can I use one bullet for both cartridges 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 Creedmoor? Anyone use one Hammer bullet in both?

Was considering the 85gr HH. Use case Texas whitetail, hogs, exotics in West Texas.
What powder you using?
What range can I expect each to still be effective and expand (1800fps minimum threshold?) ?
Any issues with up close shots?

Yes, I know I can search fiftyK posts but hoping I can find someone with the Easy Button. Internet sucks where I am presently located.

The 85 works very well in both. Yes there are tons of threads.
Easy button is go to Hammer Hunter Load data on this Forum. Hundreds of pages of load data. Expect 3500+ from your CM!

Dropped some really nice Texas porkers with both Grandal and Needmoor using the 85's. Once I get the 80gr HHT's I'm I fully expect the same results (at a faster velocity of course).

I will be changing my Creed from the 85g Hammer Hunter to the 80g Hammer HHT. Picks up another hundred fps or so and works every bit as good or better. I am getting claims of velocity in the Creed that I won't quote until I try for myself.
