New hand loader here. Is the subject powder good to use in the Grendel? I was told by the vendor it was developed for the Creedmoor but should work for the Grendel.
True or false?

False.
I'm the only member here to have tested it. I tested it in my 25 inch barreled CZ grendel and couldn't get any speed from it.
And it's not very stable in the grendel case giveing very eradic velocitys.

It is very close to H4350 in burn rate so I would expect it to be too slow burn rate for the Grendel case. A5 I am not surprised about eradic velocities. But hey someone had to try it.

Imr8208 has worked well with 90 grain through 120 grain projectiles for me

AR Comp 27.7 with SMK 120 or Scenar 123 works great in my Midway Shilen or PF Lilja.

Too slow for the Grendel works well in the Creedmoor.
