Hornady American Gunner 6.5 Grendel

[maxxmojo]

So I picked some up today. I'm not a big fan of measuring COAL, especially for HP's, other than to make sure the cartridge will fit in a mag. I much prefer to measure base-to-ogive. I grabbed 10 random ones and these are what they measured:

1.6955
1.695
1.696
1.6925
1.6965
1.696
1.6955
1.6955
1.697
1.696

For comparison's sake the Hornady Black ammo with the 123 ELD measures ~1.664. Was kinda surprise to see the gunner stuff with the ogive that much farther out. Guess we'll have to see how well it shoots.
