The first .4005" Pittman / Hammer monolithic copper hollow points will be in late this week. The first offering in this line will be 253 grains. 1.3" length. These should do well in 1 in 18 twist and faster.

I did mine on a belt sander a year ago for my other 40. That's the plan short term. I spoke to spinjag this morning and they said send them a bullet and they would see what they could do also. They wouldn't just make me a 40 cal parker style jag though unfortunately. |

The reason I did what I did is because the actual 40cal spinjag uses an 8-32 thread instead of 10-32 like on most ramrod. You will need an adapter or another ramrod to use the 40cal version. I can also tell you the spinjag for a MH or Pittman will work well with the new mono because I have shot them in my new 40. |

DP, let me know were we start. Powder wise. I'm thinking around 67-68 grains of 3031 is a decent starting point and should be in the 2650 - 2700 fps range based off some past data I've saw for the 240 CEB's. |

That may be more Recoil than you want in the TC Encore. 64 Grs of IMR 3031 with the 240 CEBs was plenty for me. |

Is there a break open caliber that would convert to shoot these?

Will you have them posted on your web site then? Yes I will. Kyle, Went to your site eagerly anticipating a photo of the "next best thing since sliced bread". "Coming Soon" - almost felt like when I go to check my trail camera and realize I forgot to turn the camera on. LOL. Look forward to the new product, best of luck. |
