[QUOTE="RH300UM, post: 1987535, member: 12469"] To give others insight to my success with the Absolute Hammer I will be as detailed as possible. My rifle 7saum built by RBros Rifles and is cleaned religiously! Remy short action Wyatt box mag Broughton twist 26 inch #4 contour with muzzle brake Manners EH2 with a Mathews fabrication cheek piece. Huskemaw scope with Hawkins Hybrid base/rings Harris bipod Load 155 AH COAL 2.966 ADG brass neck turned to 16 thou neck wall thickness (1 fired,annealed in a AMP machine) No tumbling or cleaning of brass brass prep is chamfer case mouth and clean primer pocket Full length sized with a Redding typeS die lubed with Imerial sizing die wax Using a 312 bushing gives 3thou neck tension Case neck is coated with Imperial dry neck lube CCI primers are seated with a RCBS hand priming tool 67 grains of Re26 is dispensed in a RCBS chargemaster 1500 Powder is then dumped into the case through a DIY powder drop tube to fit the powder in the case without compressing it. Bullet is seated to 2.966 COAL and CRIMPED with a Hornady custom seating die Then each round is checked for runout and concentricity with a Hornady tool This gives me 3348 fps and 6 Es at 4800 feet ASL and 38-73 degrees 80 degrees gives 3347 fps with 13 Es at 4800 feet ASL Extremely good accuracy that measures.240 for 3 shots at 100 yards for the cold load .491 for the warm load. You MUST consider shooter input to these groups. shot a .4 moa 3 shot group@1k with the cold load. Probably won’t repeat it but I’ve killed a lot of rocks since to VERY confident in the load/rifle combo I’ve shot 62 of them so far. Took 18 in the 7saum to get to this load. You MUST have more neck tension and CRIMP this bullet. I found that primers made a huge difference for my rifle. I used 215GM exclusively with my conventional loads with this rifle but after erratic performance I changed to CCI250’s and it was what I needed. Shot another 3 round string this morning at 1076 yards to check cold bore performance and killed another 1moa rock😁 Ordered some more to load up for hunting season [/QUOTE]
