[QUOTE="ButterBean, post: 2329865, member: 41385"] If I may I'm gonna tell you what Fordy has came up with in the Hammer world, "Velocity Brackets" There has been a ton of testing done and this was what fordy came up with for Hammer bullet selection, Take Your maximum intended range, adjust your projectiles weight to find maximum impact velocity for that range ( Providing your twist rate will stabilize your choice) We concentrate on impact velocity with Hammers and disregard energy numbers. Now here is where folks start shaking their heads, Hammers upon impact shed petals ( Stick with me because here is where it gets interesting) we are not sure if the petals are ahead of the shank pulling it or behind the shank in tow but the petals stay with the shank making mush out of everything as they go. Combine that with both of the Hydro's multiplied by the extra speed we are achieving and then add that your shot placement is basically unlimited .............. we have found some very deadly combinations [/QUOTE]
