Greetings,
First allow me to come clean, I use a 458 socom (un-suppressed) and 6.8 spc (suppressed) SBRs on deer & yotes. But I built a Grendel which I have been using on varmints across open field.
Does anyone care about the build? The BBL is a 6R 20" Hardened Arms, import 15" FF HG, milspec upper& lower, RA-140-SST, UTG butt stock and Ergo grip (I think) Nikon P223, something - 12 x 40 something.
I loaded 100 gr Ballistic Tip fronting 28.5 Benchmark, CCI BR4s, brass varies. I get 2800- fps. It is flat shooting, dead nuts accurate (I take whistle pigs laying, even facing, possums, etc.) - it pops them like a rogue grape under a semi-lucid, early-AM, bare foot on the way to the coffee pot. She's a keeper! I know there are tons of alternative bullets and at this stage of this thread, I'd like to keep it to 100 Balistic Tip. My setup loves these. I'm happy as a hog in heat with them - just have zero experience on bigger game.
Any existing field report threads (I stink at the site search)?
Any pics?
Do you get pass troughs and if so, reliably?
(Apologies for being a multi-cal traitor to the horde. And while I'm potentially "triggering" members, It's almose Saban season - RTR and Geaux Tigres (except for "the game.")
