    11/19/17

    Was in the tree no more than 30 minutes and this guy came cruising past.

    Used a 16" barrel from an earlier group buy (thanks BFT), stripped upper/lower, 15" KMR rail, LaRue MBT trigger, ACS-L stock, and a Burris Veracity scope. It's a sweet little package that is quite handy to tote in the woods. Ammo was the 129 ABLR from PF.

    60 yard shot, 20 yard recovery, the bullet did an amazing job on the soft goods. I was surprised that the entrance/exit holes in the ribs were almost the same size. It looked as if the bullet expanded quickly and retained most of the mass.

    *Will need to seriously resize the pictures to get them in the post.

                  Congrats! Looks like a nice 9-point buck.

                  129gr ABLR is an impressive bullet. I don't think Nosler had 6.5 Grendel in mind when they made it, but it certainly works very well from the Grendel, even from short barrels.
