Which hammer should I try?

[ButterBean]

ButterBean, I'm loading the 92 grain Hammer Hunter in a straight 25-06 looking for pressure with H4350 & H4831SC (3360+ fps) and need to load some more to find it. What is/are your favorite powders for the 25-06? Accuracy is great so far!
Thanks, Pdd

H4350 is what I have found to work best, you should be close to 3500

If you want to look at data, go to Hammer Hunter Load Data and /or Absolute Hammer Load Data on this forum. Enjoy!

What powder and grs. my brother. I like the idea of 213...you have the need for speed! Been using 300 smks.

Powder is RL26, will have to check my load notes at home to give you the exact amount of grains. It's running 3250 fps. This load is responsible for the mountain goat in my profile photo

You wouldn't happen to have a backup recipe for h1000 would you?

Hi folks! I would like to give the hammers a try. I mainly hunt small central TX deer, shoot pigs when they show up too. One of the rifles I hunt with a lot is a 25-06 sendero with a 10 twist 26" barrel. I usually shoot the superformance factory 117 sst.

With all of the bullet choices I'm not sure what to pick: hunter, absolute, or shock. I usually only shoot deer to 400 yards. I would choose a body shot over 200. I was thinking of the 90grn absolute. I have some other 25s including 06s if they don't work but they are shorter barrels. The site shows it will work with a 10 twist but is it marginal?

With regular bullets I try to go with the heaviest that will shoot well, but still like to be 3000fps or more. I've seen discussions about going really light and screaming velocities.

What are some

I like the 90 gr absolutes I worked a load up using h4350 and was really surprised with the velocity out of my 25-284 then tried rl19 and I'm at 3848 fps no pressure and great accuracy rl19 isn't as tempt stable but seems a lot easier too work with velocity and accuracy wise 62 hrs rl19 will be my Texas whitetail load this year with the 90 gr absolute check the absolute hammer bullets reloading data out on this forum

Just be cautious and test with a heating pad, RL19 is great stuff but is very temperamental to temp change
