As long as it is OK with the Mods, it would seem a reasonable idea to begin putting this info into a single location.* Hopefully, this will prevent the need for plowing through long threads that are largely about something else in order to find pertinent information.
As of early 2014, there is a lot of speculation about the performance of "Grendel II" chambers, some of which come with new barrels, others from the modification or "scraping" of existing ones.
Please include information about the barrel, including the manufacturer or similar info (like "Stoner"), type of chamber, whether is was sent out for modification.
Hopefully, it will be useful to get enough information to help owners of these barrels choose which factory loads are most likely to provide the best accuracy.** If it is discovered that these Grendel II barrels perform well with the same loads as the 6.5 Grendel SAAMI-spec ones, so much the better.
I hope that one of the Moderators will step in and let us know if this thread should include reloading info. WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED THE PARAMETERS OF LOADS TESTED AND PROVIDED IN RELOADING GUIDES OR BY MANUFACTURERS. Damaging your weapon or yourself can ruin your day and/or result in soiled underwear.
* This thread might be considered part of the 6.5 Grendel Ammunition and Reloading section, but we don't know yet if the Grendel II prefers certain bullets or factory loads.
** Of course not all barrels prefer the same loads, but this would be a place to start.
