    Loaded up some Barnes bullets...

    Loaded some 120 grain Barnes Match Burners yesterday with 26.5 grains of Benchmark just to see how well they would shootout out of my Uintah Precision 6.5 Grendel...
    Here's today's results...
    The guy on bench next to me let me fire 3 rounds through his chronograph and I was only able to get one reading of 2481 fps before it took a crap...
    My rifle has 22" barrel...

    I refuse to be victimized by notions of virtuous behavior.

        Very nice! I just bought 500 of them on sale from Midway, and this is encouraging. I have .2gr-.5gr increment ladder loads ready to shoot with Accurate 2520 and CFE223 with my 20" AR grendel. Also have some TAC to eventually try but no Benchmark.

            Thanks... I've had similar results with a 120 grain bullet with 28.5 grains of A2520...

                Me too with 120gr ELD-Ms. Best groups at 28.0 - 28.5gr.

                  Semi-auto or bolt upper Uintah? I've been eyeballing their bolt upper.

                      One more ? if you don't mind? Does that bolt upper come in 0 MOA or 20 MOA or can you choose? I can't get Uintah to answer emails.
