Second time out with my Grendel, and first time shooting my own load. Shooting at 100yds.
First shot was a flyer, then the next four grouped at .987.
Second five shot group was .966
Third five shot group was .834
Then done for the day. I'm shooting the Odin Works 20" with the Odin Works BCG. They guaranteed under 1 Mao, so I guess I can't get my money back. My Gredel has a lower parts kit trigger that is rough, heavy, and creeps forever. Polishing the sear surfaces didn't seem to help much. Have already ordered a Hiperfire 24C trigger as a replacement, so we'll see if the groups get any better.
Load data.
Hornady AMax 123 gr.
IMR 8208 XBR, 27 gr.
Hornady brass
CCI 450 primers
OAL 2.27 - this was about the max length that I could fit in my E-Lander mags.
The factory Hornady 123 Amax that I used as a source of brass for these loads were shooting closer to 2 Moa. Also, most of my spread is in the vertical. Horizontal spread is closer to a half Moa.
