Welcome aboard Scott!
I have 3x 18 Grendels. I started out with a 16 which did far more than I expected it to.
Ive been shooting the 12 the most lately. I also have a 22 Lilja bull fluted in billet receivers that I havent shot in years.
My velocities pretty much track right along with what VASCAR posted.
12 does 2400fps with Federal 120gr OTM, 2700fps with 90gr TNT Federal
16 does 2450fps with 123gr A-MAX, 2527fps with 120gr SMK on TAC
17.6 Lilja does 2900fps with 90gr TNT, 2500fps with 120gr Federal OTM, 2511fps with Precision Firearms 120gr Lapua Scenar-L, 2457fps with factory 123gr SST
18 LaRue does 2441fps with Hornady 123gr American Gunner, 2519fps with my 123gr A-MAX hand load on CFE223
22 Lilja does 2560fps with the 123gr Nosler CC on top of 31.3gr of CFE223
