I never grouped them at 200. I did 100 and 400 yards

@ my apologies, seen where it said 200!yard zero thinking you shot at 200. I love the Grendel!

@dennisgray7509 no worries! Thanks for watching! I like the Grendel quite a bit too!

I appreciate that. Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

1 in 8

20" proof research

Nope we're in the same boat. 🤣 Us poors get to watch the cool KZbin guys use the new Garmins lol

Yes I was

Thank you!

Ar15 20in barrel

Awesome. I like 8208 quite a bit. I tend not to use what I have left on testing videos lol.

@@highcountryadventures9606haha I get that. Have you tried the 115 gr tac-tx? Barnes made it for the Grendel

True. Water is not muscle tissue and neither is ballistic gel. If I had access to cattle or pig carcases on a 24/7 basis I could use them. But I could never show that on KZbin. What water and ballistic gel do provide is a consistent medium to compare projectiles to one another

My sister has one in a mini action. Very accurate rifle. It's a great shorter range deer cartridge!

Merry Christmas to you as well! I'm running a 20" proof stainless barrel

Thank you very much. That means a lot. Thank you for the sub.

That'll be an interesting one in the Grendel. 140 grain bullets can still perform quite well. Let me know how it works out!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

I like the game changers for the Grendel. Thanks for watching! I appreciate ya.

Thanks for sharing! What bullet did you use?

I've tested the Tac TX. They didn't do as well as these at longer ranges. I also had a hard time getting good velocities with that bullet. How does the 100gr perform on deer? From what I've seen that bullet may be one of the very best for the Grendel cartridge.

@highcountryadventures9606 I wish I could tell you how they perform from personal experience but unfortunately the snow got crotch deep this year and I'm a full time engineering student now so I didn't get to use the loads I so meticulously developed over the summer. However I know many people have had superb results on deer with the 100s and 115s. I recently started blowing primers in my grendel brass and it scared me so I stopped using CCI 450s and toned things down because I don't wanna hurt my sweet little Howa minis bolt face and ejector like that. I also bought 300 new pieces of Hornady brass and am counting every firing from now on..the brass that was blowing primers was from when I first started handloading during the huge pandemic shortage and I hot loaded it multiple times during my learning curve. I estimate they had about 8 or 9 reloads with annealing every 3rd firing before primer pockets blew. The factory 115TAC TX from Barnes averaged 2390 out of my rifle I was able to get my hand loads to about 2480s but they were a little over moa. I seek sub MOA or what's the point of all the effort we go through. The 115 is a nasty expanding high bc projectile but I still have work to do to get the perfect 2500fps with sub MOA groups. It wasn't as hard for me to get that with the 100s. I've done so much research and development with every cartridge I shoot and I wish I could start my own channel to share what I've learned with the community but unfortunately I live in a blue state where showing the world what I have could put me in danger.

I would be interested to know what velocities would be with 2200. It would be an interesting load out of the creedmoor

@@highcountryadventures9606 yes sir the chronograph on my list for sure. I’ll be using h4350 in the cm for the barns it works great with the 123sst took two deer with the Grendel this year with the 100 gr barns drop them right in there tracks at 60 yards

@philipwalker1267 Thanks for sharing! That would probably be a great combo in the creedmoor h4350 is an excellent powder choice. Congrats on the deer!

@@highcountryadventures9606 thank you sir I’ll be trying new loads soon as deer season over . To my surprise I didn’t get any poi shift when running my suppressor either.

Appreciate and enjoy your videos on the Grendel. Have been interested in lighter bullets but haven't got back into reloading since I got the Grendel been using between 115 to 123 grain bullets Factory loaded the most accurate load has been the PPU 120 grain hollow point but have taken four deer one shot kills with 123 grain SST

I'm sure they would work great in a bolt gun as well.

I will have to get my hands on some 127 lrx again. I too would be interested to see how they do at long range. I'm sure the cx would be similar

Nice. Tac is a great all around powder for the Grendel. For the 120 grain bullets and lighter my favorite powder is 8208 xbr. But it's hard to come by, and I hate using my supply on testing videos. CFE 223 is king for heavier bullets in my experience although getting good group sizes can be hit and miss

⁠@@highcountryadventures9606 yep I can understand that, TAC has been the most affordable lately and fairly versatile, I’ve yet to try XBR due to availability, even though I keep hearing it is a great Grendel powder. CFE has been hit and miss for me but I still need to work with it some more just been lazy but I did try some leverrevolution I had for the 30/30 and was pleasantly shocked with the accuracy.

I'll have to try some flex tape see if it's as good as the commercials lol. Thanks for watching!

I have a jp bolt. I have not tried to push these to the max. The 120 gold dot is an awesome bullet for the Grendel. Thanks for watching!

I agree
