At what distance did you zero your scope?
I get around 2430 to 2450 FPS from my 16" barrel with 9" TBAC suppressor. My 4.5-14x Leupold scope has a custom CDS dial that I typically keep set at 200 yd. zero. I simply dialed to 325 yds for this buck and held dead on where I wanted to hit. There was almost no wind and my hold was steady. I have shot the dial out to 300+ yds regularly so I knew that the rifle would deliver if I did my part.

Outstanding Buck and thanks for that data! 325 is a good poke for any hunting situation i don't care what anyone says! I also set my rigs up on 200 or 250 yard zero's depending on the speeds, the grendel will be a 200 yard zero for sure. Most stuff closer to 3000 fps i go 250 zero. I like a simple elevation knob with a speed dial turret also. Usually i print, laminate and crazy glue a simple 10 mph wind chart for zero and every 100 yards after into the inside of a butler creek flip up cap so its visible with the turret to dial up a hung up a coyote or unsuspecting deer. Seems quick and simple but effective. My longest coyote so far is 620 and a first year doe (read fawn, barely bigger than a coyote) at 521, doe with a dial up .270 win, and the coyote with a dial up .270 wsm. Looking forward to running these grendels on game, soon. Again, impressive shot and trophy with an impressive cartridge, congrats!
