[QUOTE="PLHunter, post: 2065283, member: 107772"] Thanks for your response. I’ve experimented with cutting edge, hammers, and Barnes. I couldn’t get the SD down on the cutting edge bullets and didn’t really like the customer experience. Barnes were fine but the lowish BC and performance at lower impact velocities kind of rules them out. The hammers have been easy to load shoot right and I’m getting great speeds with them. 123’s at 3000 with a creedmoor and the 121 .257 at 3250 in a 25-06. I’ve taken 4 pronghorn a mule deer and 4 white tails with the hammers with great results. My only complaints would be lower than expected realized BCs. The customer service has been great. The badlands seem to address that problem. I’m using 44.5 grains of RL-16 in the creedmoor and 59.3 grains of 8133 in the 25-06 for the hammers. Hoping I can reach similar speeds with the badlands in the creedmoor. [/QUOTE]
