Took an antelope and a black tail with these out of my 300prc. Very accurate and devastating on game. 1000 yards is a walk in the park.

300 PRC: 199 gr Hammer Hunter™
83 gr Ramshot Magnum
COAL: 3.643″
3024 FPS
Standard Deviation 5.79 FPS
Accuracy is outstanding, down to .25 inch groups at 100 yds if I do my part.
I have shot one mature whitetail buck at 400 yds with this load through my Bergara 300 PRC so far. Shot placement was through both front shoulders. Nearly instant death. Exit wound was dime size with two petal fragments lodged under the hide.

Easiest load development I have ever had with my long throated Browning 300 RUM! Under a dime size group at 100 yards all day if you do your part.
Can’t wait to hit a couple animals with this bullet to see how they preform.

I spent way too much time, money, and components trying to get a load developed for my custom built 300 PRC using another very popular jacketed bullet for magnum .30 cal. I should have tried these much sooner! I immediately found a powder node, seated these -0.010”, and shot .15” groups. For me, in this rifle, these bullets are like having a cheat code. These will be the only bullets I load going forward.

Incredible bullet in 30 Nosler with long throat. 3080 fps and bughole groups at 200 yards with N570.

Listen to Paul (above)…I didn’t. I, too, spent a lot of time and money on other 200gr monolithic bullets and had very inconsistent results dialing in a load with my pre-fit, custom 300 PRC. In the end, I think the 1:9 proof cf barrel didn’t like anything 200gr or above. These HH 197gr bullets were my “Hail Mary” to get a load developed (only took 2 days and I left for CO on the third) for my elk hunt in CO a couple weeks ago. Easily found 3 nodes and went with middle one at ~2940 as it also happened to coincide with OBT for a 24″ bbl (if you believe in that stuff). First time I had consistent 1/2 MOA groups all day. Shot my first ever elk with my first ever built bolt action rifle, with my first ever handload at 185 yds in the first two hours of 1st rifle opening. The bull dropped where it stood. These bullets do an incredible job and just maybe might be infused with a bit of good luck as well.

I put a 300 win mag borerider together on a pre64 h&h length action. Seating to OAL of 3.470 and using R26 with peterson brass and a 215 primer. Brux 26 inch 9 twist. Getting an average of 3180 with 1/2 inch groups. I think I am ready to hunt anything. I have sold these bullets to customers and on big elk bulls nobody has had to shoot anything twice. Most went down on the spot and that is saying something. A big bull elk is the toughest animal in america.
