Attachment 251090
Attachment 251091I thought I would post this up to show the effectiveness of this monolithic copper projectile at range.
This stag taken at 560 yards was a clean kill.
Entry hole in lower brisket after going though crease in shoulder. Stag front on and up hill shot
7mm saum
143 hammer hunter
MV 3183fps
Bang flop or did he go some distance before tipping over ? Genuinely curious
Iv seen the video unreal!
He was on his feet for 5 seconds after the shot, went 2 or 3 meters and fell over.Quote:

Great vid. Brutal. Issue are the Hunters better than the Absolutes? Looking at that vid it is an unnecessary debate. LOL.
Funny you say that. I have had the same internal conversation/ debate.Quote:

On the flip side the Tipped Hammer Hunter has a better BC and a lower impact velocity threshold, 1700 vs 1800fps.
But.... my load hits the 1800 fps at 750 yards which is further than I would take a shot at a trophy and with dial up scope the BC of a projectile is irrelevant.
My load with the hammer hunter will group with 3 rounds touching at 300 yards so that really doesn't get much better!
Great video & result
Hammer projectiles are awesome
The Absolute's give amazing velocities in the right size case
The HHT's are ridiculously accurate in the rifles I've shot them through so far
approximate impact velocity??? he sure didnt stay upright for long,nice shooting .
Are you guys crimping the case with these?
No. I use them in 3 different rifles and calibers. All shoot well.Quote:

I shot a fairly large red hind just recently at just over 300y with a 7mm 90gr HH. Would have been somewhere around 2100fps impact velocity. She folded without taking a step & upon opening her up looked like she had been hit with a 180gr ELDM. Is certainly impressive how effective the HH are for their weight.
Do you import these yourself, or are they available in NZ?
Good shot:cool:
What is the exit velocity? Barrel burner.Quote:
