[QUOTE="rbTanzan, post: 2283794, member: 53978"] Yes on the Hammer Hunter 70 grains .243". In a 20" barrel with 10" twist, we use R9.5mag H4350 47.5gn, 70gnHH for 3575fps. I would get a 50-pack so that you can use up to 30+ for load development. Sure, 15 bullets may be enough, but the bullet is definitely worth an extra try if 15 doesn't work out with a particular available combination. The 69gn Absolute Hammer would also be good to try, trading off a little BC (.16 to .14 G7) for +150-200fps. Accuracy would be the decider between the two and both will handle deer. [/QUOTE]
