New from Oregon - GrendelHunter - 10-22-2011
Hello all!
New to the forum. I have a AA 19.5" Hunter upper on a Bushmaster lower. I swap out the .223 Bushmaster upper to the Grendel depending on the game I'm after. I'm primarily interested in reload data. I've been using the Noster 120 BT's and a number of different powders (TAC,2520, BL-C2(2),and Varget. I get good results with them all but will probably stick with Varget because that's what I run in the .223. However, I'm always open for suggestions.

Welcome, Jason, good to have ya! What is it about Oregon? Had two friends from Minnesota move out there and my next-door neighbor plans to retire there. Must be a nice place!

Welcome. While Varget is popular with the .308, I seem to remember a lot of guys having issues with it in the Grendel, but I could be wrong. The others you mentioned are all some of the main go-to powders in this cartridge. I've had a lot of good results with TAC.
