Steve,
Yes for all practical purposes it’s the same.
Therefore the same loads will apply.

Steve, That's really cool. He says "for all practical purposes", so I wonder what that means. Rereading my post, it sounds like I am skeptical, and I apologize. I've wondered the same about TAC and 2520 for a long time.
He did tell me in the past that they used XTerm for their loads because they considered TAC a little slow for the bullet weights ideally suited to the Grendel.
It gets more and more interesting!
