    Howdy

    Been reading the forum for about a year, and appreciate all of the information shared here. Decided to join the horde in order to share observations and start taking part in conversations. Got into grendel in 2019 and am looking forward to developing some rounds for my rifle this year. Cheers!

                Thank you kindly.

                I'm out west, nearish lrrpf52's neck of the woods but a bit south. I'm super interested in his work with a grendel pdw and utlralights as well as zen's work with the 130 bergers and lever. Im going to be working on building up a load for 130's in the heat. Hoping to get them close to 2500fps. Also my hunting load come the cold. Big fan of the 129 ablr on elk, just hoping to improve on the factory loading.

                My rig isn't anything fancy but works quite well in the hills:
                20" faxon gunner, nikon fx 1000 4-16 x50, red dot offset, and an h3 buffer with a geiselle ssa-e.

                Also attempting a precision .308 build.

                One of my favorite hobbies is picking on a folgers coffee can (the big one, about 9" tall) from 850 yrds. I'm ecstatic if I get a hit in less than 10 rounds. Hoping to reduce the round count with the 130s. Best result so far has been with factory 123gr scenars. On target in 5. Haven't been able to do it since.
