I didn't get into grendel until 2019 but reading this article back then helped to determine that path. Thank you for sharing.

Looks like maker has offerings for subs and supers in .338 so might start there. The subs suggest a twist rate of 1:6.5 or faster though....

[HighDesertDrifter]

That has been my current experience with the factory offering also and kinda verifies my suspicion the round just isn't quite offering enough boom to...

[HighDesertDrifter]

Hope it works out for you. Thank you for trying something new and sharing your observations.

I haven't seen anyone offer anything other than pistol length gas so far including mos-tek. They're the only ones I've seen, so far, offer a variation...

[HighDesertDrifter]

Most excellent. Thank you.

LRRPF52 Are you able to run heavier(130s) out of that rig as well? Being able to run full gambit of bullet weights is something I'm interested in. I have...

[HighDesertDrifter]

ditto. I'll most likely still be putting together my .375 raptor first, but still really interested to see where all of this goes.

Thanks fellers I appreciate it all.

While developing this load I was initially aiming for 2400fps ball park and was loading a bit more powder...

[HighDesertDrifter]

I'd say thats a pretty decent analogy. We could look up the actual decibels to compare but that seems about right....

A5Blaster Number 2 No insult taken whatsoever. I'm new to this and appreciate the input. The more I reflect on those other shots the more I'm thinking...

[HighDesertDrifter]

I don't know that I'm all that fussed over the new bolt design. I'm of the mind the ejector concerns are a carry over from the early days. I have an aero...
