328 gr Hammer Hunters 375 H&H?

[TaperPin]

I’ve always accepted the 375 is a short range gun only good for timber hunting or carrying while salmon fishing with Partitions, but a Partition runs out of speed after 300 yards and it seems a shame to have to leave it home when longer shots might be a possibility, or to shoot lighter bullets

Anyone shooting the 328 Hammer Hunter?

260 gr Accubonds make it to 500, sort of.



328 gr Hammer Hunters also make it to 500 with a lot more lead in it’s britches.

Are you going off of Hammer’s posted BC, or a tested BC? If you’re going off of Hammer’s posted BC, it’ll probably fall far short

I know very little about Hammer in general, and only what they have posted for BC. That’s good to know.

They make a good mono bullet, but for the most part, their estimated BC’s are exaggerated, so just be careful about picking one of their options based on stated BC.

AB has shot some of their stuff, but nothing in .375. On the bullets they do have, I’d do estimations with the CDM
