I tried loading up some of the AR-comp and ended up with a mildly compressed load that shoots about 1.5 MOA, and I've loaded up a couple more bullets with that load that I have seated a bit deeper to try to see if the powder pushing out the bullets by about .005" affected accuracy that significantly. Next I plan on loading up some CFE223 and some IMR4895(when I can find some info for it, I was thing of starting at 27gr and stopping at 28.5 in .5gr increments.) I am heading to the range in a few hours to test, so I'll try to update then.
It's not wise to use 5 tenth increases in powder charge in the grendel case. The case is to small of volume for that amount of increase.
Better to use 2 or 3 tenths increases.
