Talk to me about SBR 6.5 Grendel setups

[LRRPF52]

What makes the ABLR better at 400yrds than the SST? From what I can figure, the SST will have a higher velocity and more energy. I assume this is because the ABLR claims to expand better at lower velocities? I'd like to see a side by side comparison with ABLR vs SST at 1600 fps or so.

On a different note - question to the OP: Why have such a long muzzle device if a short barrel is what you're after? Not knocking your choice, just generally curious. It seems like that length would be better suited with a few more inches of barrel to add some max effective range to your rig. Judging by your shooting on that doe, reducing recoil for followup shots isn't really necessary I'm assuming that brake certainly isn't helping the "ear slap" mentioned.

ABLR has a .553 G1 BC (Litz), compared to the SST's .462 G1. ABLR expands fully as soon as it enters, and has the longer expansion threshold down to 1300fps, making it an excellent choice for an SBR. The BC and weight help it retain energy better than most other hunting bullet choices for the 6.5 Grendel.
