[QUOTE="naja302, post: 1720799, member: 69437"] [ATTACH=full]151082[/ATTACH] I just did a 10 shot ladder just to look for pressure/velocity with Retumbo and N570 and hornady 180 ELD-Match and the 177 hammers.! I don’t have the actual numbers on me but I’ll post when I return in 2 weeks from ibex hunting in Kyrgyzstan!!!!!!!!!...if my brain remembers anything besides ibex... But I did want to share this: The hornady did not have pressure signs as quickly as the hammers. I remember that I only fired 3 of the 10 with hammers and retumbo, whereas I fired all 10 with retumbo and 180 HDY with pressure signs only showing up at the end. For some reason I would have thought the hammers would produce less pressure...but that’s why you test. Here’s a group that I tried with a middle powder weight of N570 and 180 HDY (this was a spot in the middle of my ladder where 4 shots grouped well and velocity didn’t change much so I just loaded up a group to try. I had pressure signs with both powders by the time I reached 3200 FPS and I didn’t quite shoot all 10 rounds with Hammers and N570 Now onto changing seating depths... [/QUOTE]
