Finished building my 6.5 Grendel with 18" AR stoner barrel. I have been shooting the hornady a-max 123 grain through it. Buying these and saving brass is cheaper than buying brass for the Grendel. Also, these rounds shoot extremely well (around .5 MOA at 100 yards) I pulled a bullet and weighed the powder which was 28.5 grains of a ball type powder I'm thinking it may have been h blc-2 but I'm not sure. Does anyone have a good handload recipe that they would like to share or know what my be close to replicating the hornady stuff?
