Product Overview
The Weatherby Select Plus 6.5 PRC 124gr Hammer Custom is a premium lead-free hunting load featuring Hammer Bullets' innovative all-copper design. With a muzzle velocity of 3,100 fps and 2,646 ft-lbs of energy, this ammunition delivers exceptional terminal performance while meeting lead-free requirements for hunting in restricted areas. The Hammer bullet's unique hollow point design sheds petals immediately upon impact while the solid copper base continues penetrating.
Hunters pursuing medium to large game in California and other lead-restricted zones will find this load provides the performance they need without compromise. The solid copper construction ensures near-100% weight retention and deep penetration, making it effective on elk-sized game even at extended ranges. The high velocity and flat trajectory are forgiving of range estimation errors common in western hunting scenarios.
The Hammer bullet's CNC-machined construction offers exceptional consistency from round to round, with tolerances tighter than many match bullets. This translates to outstanding accuracy that rivals dedicated target ammunition. Hunters who demand both precision and terminal performance will find the Hammer Custom delivers on both counts without the lead contamination concerns of traditional bullets.
- 100% lead-free for compliance in restricted hunting areas
- CNC-machined copper construction for exceptional consistency
- High velocity (3,100 fps) for flat trajectory
- Unique petal-shedding design creates multiple wound channels
- Outstanding accuracy rivals match ammunition
- Moderate BC (0.478) compared to heavier lead-core bullets
- Premium pricing for boutique bullet design
- Limited availability outside Weatherby distribution
- Lighter 124gr weight may not be optimal for the largest game at distance
