awesome, got 2 whitetail does and an antelope doe also this season with 16.1" barrel and hornady black, 250, 200 and 183 yards, all drt's, exits and a lot of lost meat on the shoulders, puts us at 7 species now and 18 kills over 6 seasons, same ammo, for only burning 30 grains of powder it's pretty remarkable, I tried 3 times to fill my cow elk tag and ran into bulls, last year was the opposite so still looking for species number 8, next year will try again, funny thing is I picked up a 308 to play with and on one of the hunts got to select it's preferred ammo of 8 tested and the only two that went sub moa was hornady eld-m match (regular white box) and fusion 180's, .6" ctc for 3 shot groups with a 6x scope laying prone on a bipod...promptly shot a small rack fat body whitetail buck about 175 yards with the 308 and took heart without destroying a shoulder so it was able to do a few hops to 15 yards....funny it was shorter shot distance and longest recovery of all 4 animals so far this season lol...the little grendel that can

We always strive for meat saver shots intot he boiler room. I cant think of a high shoulder taken shot. Will try this on the upcoming coues deer hunt in a couple weeks. I guess your asking if this round can anchor them down or drop them on the spot a ranges over 200 yards. If this is so, then let me come back with the results in a couple weeks.

Well this weekend we had alot of good success on our youth deer/javalina hunt. We had 3 deer tags and 3 javalina tags. We filled 2 deer and 1 javalina. However the 2 deer were taken with a 6.5creedmoor Christensen rifle at 270 and 250yds. The Javalina was taken with the same elk slaying grendel at 203yds 1 shot and DRT off a tripod shooting down into a canyon. Unfortunalty no deer were harmed with the grendel this deer camp.IMG_2166.jpeg

This was a great weekend, really tries your patience hunting with teenagers. However I think this is how all them hunting mentors or dads go thru when teaching kids hunting skills. Im taking my wife and bro in law coues deer hunting this coming weekend so will report back if we get shot with the grendel.

Did government credibility die of Covid or with Covid?
