I just converted one of my AR-15's to 6.5 Grendel. Does anyone else here shoot this caliber? I would like to hear about any loads you have tried.

So far:
120gr SMK
AA brass
Win small rifle primer
28gr Varget
2400 fps

1" groups @ 100 yards, ok
1.5" groups @ 200 yards, better
12" groups @ 600 yards, Disapointing accuracy, even discounting windage.
