Does anyone know what muzzle pressures the 6.5 Grendel produces at various barrel lengths? I'm personally interested in the Psi at 12.5" with a factory load like the Hornady 123 Amax, but for reference, education, and the use of others, I'll take whatever pressures you might have.
I'm also interested in comparisons between the Grendel and 5.56 at various lengths (12.5" personally ). Generic chamber pressures aren't too hard to find, and I know the 5.56 is loaded to higher pressures than Grendel, but what is going on farther down the bore? Percentage of powder burned at various lengths (especially @ 12.5" )?
Thanks for any help. I think it's pertinent not only to suppressors, but also to muzzle brakes too. The percentage of powder burned will also give some clues to how much muzzle flash should be exoected.
I'm thinking maybe some of you guys who use/understand Quickload might know. That's above and beyond my paygrade, so what do you guys know?
I asked in my suppressor thread, but it's in accsessories, so it might not get seen where the ammo and loading guys are. It's a semi-pertinent general purpose knowledge thing anyway, so I re-asked it here.
