    Howa 6.5 grendel, MBT LSS, PRS stock update

    Refined my last results with some 5 shot groups at 200 and 300 yards.

    The photos are from 30.6 gr of CFE. I will settle on this load.

    Might try a 300 yard F class match with this.....

    300 yd group measures 1.7”
    200 yd group measures 0.7”20171112_120006-1238x696-371x209.jpg20171112_121451-1238x696.jpg

    Nice shootin'. What is an F class match?

    I just got the Howa Grendel youth model and it only seems a bit shorter in LOP.

    Did you get a 20 MOA base?

      I hope that link helps. Is is a specific shooting Competition held to NRA rules.

      I don’t believe there is such thing as a youth model, I have seen it advertised in Whitaker’s but it does not exist on the Legacy web site.

      Yes I have a Warne 20 MOA Base.

      Congrats on your rifle.
      Make sure to post some photos!

          No that is my measurement using the Hornady comparator on my calipers of the finished round!

          Sorry I should keep those numbers off the photos.

          The other number is the ogive to the base of the bullet. I just changed bullet lot.
          I am a terrible record keeper and try to write everything on the target....

            Thanks for the NRA highpower rules.

            I started a new thread about my Youth Mini Grendel and posted a picture of it next to my A2 stocked AR with 24" Overwatch upper.

            There is a tag on the box that says "Legacy - yth mini Grendel" . I guess they just don't advertise it.

            I ordered the 0 MOA base since I probably will never shoot at 1000 yds.

              Ok, glad to hear that. I had some concern for your wellbeing.
