      What muzzle velocity are you getting with these loads?

      Im using A2520 with a 97gn Hammer and thinking of trying a heavier bullet sometime.

        Low 2400s in the 18 inch barrel and 2490s in the 22 inch barrel...

          good to know, thank you. At some point I will try some heavier bullets so its good to estimate velocities.

            I was able to use a chronograph for the 22 inch barrel for 10 rounds and all velocities were high 2480s and low 2490s...

              Wow, that reloading bench picture is impressive. Something for me to aspire to.

                  Wow, thats a really low velocity Extreme Spread... no wonder your groups are really good. I haven't been able to get my ES down that low and looking into it, maybe a heavier bullet is the sweet spot with a Grendel.
