Hornady 100 gr A-max - Les Staley - 05-07-2020
Any experience with this bullet in the Grendel? Looking for load suggestions, experiences using this bullet in hunting situations, deer, lion, coyotes. Only good for ground squirrels? Thanks in advance.

Hello-
just speaking from a target shooting perspective, these are great" plinkers" I've had best success with H335 or XBR 8208. But if you do a search on this forum, I'm sure TAC, CFE223, or a host of other powders will work fine.
This bullet has a "fat" ogive profile, similar to the 95 vmax , 120 amax, so for best results, measure in your chamber first. SAAMI chamber you'll end up about 2.19''.
No hunting experience with these, maybe some of the hunters on the forum can share their experiences.
hope this helps
