[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2431265, member: 94491"] I couldn't get the speeds he was claiming, I wasn't overly impressed with ease of load work up or accuracy--- I could get 1-1.25 moa, but I'm the kind of guy that prefers 1/2-3/4 moa or I'm not happy. My lead core bullets were shooting faster and more accurate.... I now shoot hammers in some of my rifles and the ones I have tried, I can get as fast or faster speeds than like weight lead core bullets--- I have tried hammers in a few guns I wasn't satisfied with accuracy, but most I am. I'm not a brand specific fan, I use what gives me the results i desire. As far as expansion-- the cbb expanded well in anything I've tried-- they are designed to keep the pedals on ( like a barnes) --- not like the design of a hammer (pedals off) ....the cbb use a "cutting" design....the hammers have the pedals off secondary wound channels and a blunt faced penetrating projectile to create a large permanent wound channel like a hard cast wfn style bullet. I have never seen any of the "cavity" claims proven so I'm inclined to believe the cavity is more of a marketing design than anything else. [/QUOTE]
