My shooting partner and I were able to get our Grendels to the range yesterday, first time out for his, and mine only had 15 rounds through it. Mine is a Howa Mini HB, his is an AR built around a Wilson Combat SS barrel, both have 20" barrels. I had a variety of factory loads with me, but all he had was the FGMM Berger load. I realize there are a ton of reasons for this, but neither rifle performed at all well with that load. I'm still having barrel free float issues with the Howa, but his AR could not get them to group acceptably, best group was over an inch at 100 yards, the worst was more like 2". Oddly enough, a group shot with Federal AE 90 gr. TNT's made one ragged hole with 4 rounds, the other shot was a called pull. And both the Hornady Black and SST 123 gr. loads were right at the 1 MOA mark. So the rifle is certainly capable, as is the shooter.
Which finally brings me to it, what's the Horde's opinion of this particular loading? Thanks!
