Most of the reloading data has been posted in another section of this forum. It is great to have access to all the Grendel info once again. I truly think that knowledge about this cartridge/weapon system will move forward faster as a result of this forum.
While Bill Alexander is a wealth of knowledge, all our input only makes his continual search for knowledge easier. The more true data and first hand experience we can post, the more useful the information will be. Vague, or second hand rumors, or "I heard that", just aren't as valuable as one of us actually writing up a good after action report with real useful data in it.
Try to think about the questions that an engineer, weapon designer, or rifle builder would need. The more detailed the information the better. It is easier to ignore measurements that are not needed, than it is to wish you had measurements that someone failed to include in their report.
