Which Hammers?

I'm loading up some proven 156 Berger loads for mine and my brother's Brownings, some new loads for a buddy's Seekins (156 in Lapua brass and N565), and going back to the drawing board my son's Christensen Arms Mesa in 6.5 PRC with 130 grain Accubonds and H1000 in Norma brass. That Mesa used to be mine and I passed it down to my son who, at the time, only hunts in Northern MN for deer. I just couldn't find anything in the 140 class to shoot consistently under an inch and it absolutely sprayed the 156 Bergers so I'm dropping weight to see if I can find "the one" before his antelope hunt (graduation gift) this fall. Not overly impressed with the Mesa but I have been damned impressed with my X-Bolt so far!

6.5 Swede, 142 grain accubonds. Vv n555 powder. 2843 average velocity. Fun to o shoot. Little recoil but plenty of thump. .5 moa with 5 shots.

I have a full box of these sitting on my bench but the gun I'd like to try them in hasn't loved the 140 weight class, how has your Swede shot other bullets in this weight class?

In my Swede great!!! In my wife’s, modified choke. Hers likes the 125 to 129 grain stuff. Really weird.

Okay I'll ask, "modified choke"??

Which Hammers?

124 grain hammer hunters, they are 1/2 MOA in my weatherby and perfect for most anything below Elk sized game.

Speer spitzer 175 grain 8 mmx57, for my commercial 98 Mauser.

I’ve been shooting the 125 HHT for the last two years. If my experience counts for anything, they’ll work just fine on elk to.

Alum tips perform on game?

Alum tips perform on game?

For me they've worked fine on 8-9 deer and antelope, and one cow elk. Lights out coyote bullet...
