Welcome to the clan, b6, from the great nation of Texas! You will find a wealth of info on reloading for the Grrr across these pages. If you haven't already done so, pick upcopies of Vol's 1 & 2 of the Grendel Handbook. You will find much of what you're looking for in those manuals. As you have found, the Grendel is very shoulder friendly.

I would recommend keeping the 556s’ complete segregated from the Grendel, if not, you will end up with a little 10.5” or 12” Grendel shortie running around soon. Dem Grendels will breed every AR in sight....
