NEW Hornady 6.5 Grendel 100gr ELD-VT Factory Load

[LRRPF52]

Any bc numbers? If they match or exceed the sierra 105s then I know what I'll be playing with next.

.445 G1 BC for the 100gr ELD-VT

.385 G1 for the 100gr ELD-M, which means they really stretched this one or put a longer boat tail on it.

100gr ELD-M would give me 1109fps and 273 ft-lbs at 1000yds based on their doppler program, when fired at 2700fps mv.

Using G7 for the new 100gr ELD-VT fired at 2700fps from a 17.6-18” Grendel, at my altitude (6300ft) I would see:

300yds 2223fps 1097ft-lbs 1.1 mils drop .6 drift

400yds 2074fps 955ft-lbs 1.9 mils drop .8 mils drift

500yds 1932fps 828ft-lbs 2.9 drop 1 mil drift

600yds 1794fps 715ft-lbs 3.9 / 1.2

700yds 1662fps 613ft-lbs 5.1 / 1.5

800yds 1535fps 523ft-lbs 6.5 / 1.8

900yds 1413fps 443ft-lbs 8 / 2.1

1000yds 1296fps 373ft-lbs 9.6 / 2.4
