New 69gr .224 Absolute Hammer Bullet

[HammerBullets]

The new 69g .224 caliber Absolute Hammer made from pure copper will increase the speed potential for those rifles with a 1-8″ twist or faster. Absolute Hammers are designed so that they have very low engraving pressure. This results in higher velocity potential in most cartridges than can be seen with conventionally designed bullets. This also means that they will not line up with conventional load data. They should only be loaded by experienced hand loaders that are comfortable reading pressure signs, and figuring out the right powder combination to get there.

How fast do you think these could be pushed in 223s?

Just ordered. Stay tuned.
I've got 70gr HH running 3100 out of 18" barrel. Super hot load as a medium to run it against.

223 I assume. What powder?

223 Wylde. It's an Absolute. Will experiment with 3 different powders to see what I can get out of it.
