    Leverevolution updates?

    Does anyone have any new updates on using LVR in their Grendels? Ive been using it exclusively for the last 6months and have had great results....Ive shot them from 65deg to 90deg with no significant change in the dope out to 1000yards....
    The only complaint I have is its pretty dirty....So i dont know how reliable it will be with a suppressor.
    My accuracy has always been around the .5moa group at 100yards....I dont know if the other powders like 8208 may yield better accuracy...

    All this talk about how its only meant for 30-30 type cartridges etc...from the manufacturer is kinda limiting.....

    zeroed at 50 yds with reloads and the tweaked at 200 yds.
    Then shot some fireforming with 26 g in lapua AK brass, and 123 nosler cc blems and got less than 1/2 moa. AA 24 inch heavy.

      People have been having a lot of success with LVR for years in the Grendel. We have a lot of load data for it in Volume II of the 6.5 Grendel Reloading Handbooks.



      Starting with the 120gr Nosler Ballistic Tip through the 123gr, 129gr, and 130gr, it seems to generate some of the best velocities and appears to bahave with great stability. BWild97 got 2740fps from a 24" J&T upper with the 123gr SST, for example. Nimrod got 2465fps with a 20" barrel and the 129gr SST, and 2420fps with the 130gr Swift Scirocco.

      Bwild97 got 2604fps with the 130gr Sierra Game King from his 24" barrel.
