+1 on BHW. I have their mid length 18" fluted stainless barrel in 1:9" twist in what I consider a walking varminter weight profile, possibly the next profile heavier than what you want. Consistent half MOA performer with tailored handloads using 107-123 grain bullets-especially fond of Sierra Match Kings and Hornady 123s. If you want to shoot heavier/longer bullets consider their 1:8" twist. I anticipate Hornady will release an ELD-X bullet appropriate for the Grendel case and based on the 143 grainer for larger .26 calibers it could be over 130 grains.
