After having broken in my Grendel barrel w/200 rds factory loaded ammo,I started working up hand loads.I tried the powders that I use for .223,which I have several lbs of each.CFE223,ARCOMP, & H335.
H335 has give me the best accuracy and has been most consistent.I like 123g Hornady ELD match bullets.They work well and can be found in 500 rds packs for under $150 delivered.
But,I have had the best success w/123g Sierra MK bullets.Starting with 26.5g H335 and working up,I got consistent moa and sub moa groups out of both of my cheapo BCA 24” barrels.
123g Sierra MK aren’t cheap.Around $190 for 500 bullets.But,for me,Sierra MK have always been my favorite bullet.If my barrel can’t shoot at least MOA w/Matchkings,it’s time to rebarrel!
