    Doe gets the short stick...

    Animals are slapping the ground around here... Still using SST. This shot was @ 100yds and further back than I would have liked. She was bolting. Ran about 75 yds or so... easy enough to track.



    One of the bigger doe I've killed in these parts...

    In other news, On my way to do some load testing Saturday two of my loads got mixed up. I called the flyer on the left so it's pretty easy see which is which. Will do some more testing around this load and see if I can't find an impressive group for y'all out of this short, chrome-lined, stick.

    Nice job. I just read some of your posts from way back in 2012, and it's interesting to see that you have stuck with the Grendel.

    I need to look back and see how your rifle is configured.

      I stuck with the Grendel on it's own merits. I have an 18" liberty barrel that is about to be replaced by a Lilja 18" with the 264LBC chamber. This particular gun is a Sabre Defence barrel that I had ADCO cut down to 12.5". I'm a huge fan of the Grendel and have killed well over 100 animals... probably approaching 200. I'm wishing now I had kept better records. I think the best days are still ahead of us and hope that some of the old drama will die down.


      ETA: I recently updated the thread about building the SBR.

        So 100yds with a 12.5" SBR in 6.5 Grendel with the 123gr SST. Is that a hand load?

        What a handy little package that is.
