Weatherby Hammer Custom .240 Weatherby Mag 72gr Ammo

Weatherby Hammer Custom .240 Weatherby Magnum 72-grain ammunition (part no. M24072HCB) pairs Weatherby’s flat-shooting varmint-to-deer magnum with a solid-copper Hammer bullet from Weatherby. Hammer bullets are a monolithic, lead-free design built around controlled terminal disruption rather than traditional mushrooming, engineered to transfer devastating energy on impact while the main bullet body continues driving forward. .240 Weatherby Magnum was designed to push a light, fast bullet at extremely flat trajectories, and this 72-grain loading takes full advantage of that speed for varmint and predator work, or a fast-moving option on smaller deer-sized game. It’s a purpose-built load for shooters who want maximum velocity out of the .240 Weatherby platform.
