the 6.5x55 with the Hornady 160 RNSP kills like the hammer of Thor !
Why I am saying bye to 6.5 Creedmoor.

I like my grendel, but for shooting PRS style matches in Kansas, I went .260 and now it has a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel (actually 2, but that's another story). I shot 3 matches with the grendel and realized that a 130 or 140 doing 2700-2800 was a better option. My 20" Tikka CTR isn't too bad to carry deer hunting, but the grendel get's the nod when I am calling coyotes and want the faster second shot. It is easier for me to shoot the Tikka accurately at longer ranges for sure.

When all is said and done, I hope to have a dedicated breakfast beverage, a mixer for vodka. Out to 176 proof. A lightweight cake glaze, in the form of my Almond Pound Cake (once it is back from the confectioner), for entertaining. Jell-O will soon be in my fridge again in the guise of a 20 inch heavy gelatin citrus flavored pudding, topped with whipped creme for ... target shooting.
William Tell eat your heart out.
So long, Macintosh.

I however am happy with the challenge, and am striving to get the recognition for the Grendel at a couple of monthly shoots. Handicapped to hell and back with a gas gun, and under powered compared to the rest of the shooters (all bolt guys), but I am working on it.Sticks
Catchy sig line here.
