I’m about tired of hammers...

[brockel]

Looks a little low and left to me

I’ll try a little harder next go around

Impressive shooting @brockel.

Only thing that will not loading Hammers NOT boring is if you inadvertently don’t follow the their twist rate recommendations. Couldn’t figure out why the 181 HH wouldn’t shoot in my old 700 Classic 300 WBY when 180 Accubonds grouped really well. Come to find out it’s a 1:12 twist. Dumb. Now I’m working with the 151 Absolutes. Should go fast.

Yep I’d like to be shooting the 155 hammer hunters but I can’t spin them

Top ones the tikka 284. Shilen #2 contour cut at 23” 9 twist

About tired of hammers making reloading so boring. Took a whole 17 rounds to find this load. I actually didn’t believe it so I went and loaded a couple more and tested again and they shot same POI. Was really on my game today. I think this is the load I’ll run in the tikka 284 Winchester .

Impressive. Knock back 3 cups of coffee and do it again and we will all be even more impressed.

My group looks like that................ until I fire the second shot. Looks like you have found "the load". Excellent shooting !!

Fond memories. And Steve imbibed in a few if I remember. Foggy memory, also but great bullets. mtmuley Snowy's animal beer reference brought up memories

$9 trigger spring

 

[jeff_gibbons]

Wow!! thats an amazing group. I couldn't shoot one that tight at 25 yards with my best gun. Way to go.

 

[MThuntr]

That's terrible you better give that rifle to me so you don't have to shoot it anymore

I guess you dont need it but a McMillan sure would set it off.

Tikka is the one factory stock I like

 

[Salmonchaser]

That’ll do

Tikkas and the bullet combo are so money! I just stumbled into hammers this past year and between my wife and I we killed 10 animals with them! Performance has been top notch in the accuracy is crazy!

 

[TBoschma]

Here is my wife’s savage with the hammer Hunter 124

 

[blueridge]

I see the one bullet hole but you're gonna have to locate the flyers.

Come on @Schaaf , everyone knows we photoshop out the flyers.

Very nicely done!! Using the 284 case in a Tikka seems like a very good fit. LA magazines? A rechamber of my 260 would be an easy sell to me...
