Do they work great on game and are they accurate in your guns?
If the answer is YES, and you get them quickly, then paying a premium price is really not a big deal.
I have several friends that absolutely love how they perform on game.
I have not hunted with Hammer's yet, but they are going to be one of my go to bullets for mule deer and on up game.
Barnes LRX and the AB's are two other bullets I will use as well for mule deer and above.
