History lesson for today. I was the first person in the world to kill a WT deer with the Buckhammer. They were developed by a friend of mine in Elizabethtown, Ky. He gave me some prototypes still in a plain white box. Sighted in with them and killed a big doe the next morning at Ft. Knox. Took several pics of the major wound channel that the Hammer made. Those slugs were made because at the time Remington was behind WW and others with their plastic sabots and the accuracy wasn't there just yeat. The Buckhammers filled the void for a time period and never really became as popular as the sabot slugs.Timex, I sure wish Remington would reconsider and once again offer them to the hunting public. Their Buckhammers were the most accurate Deer slugs in my Browning bolt action. I've also have use a similar brand "Lighfields" which shot fairly well too. I don't care for those pure copper bullet shaped spitzer type sabots as they seem to have a tendency to "walk" across the target when I try to group them in.
