The rifle now has 6 rounds downrange and I'll be starting proper load development soon.
With three rifles needing barrel break in, I was spending more time cleaning than shooting at the range. By being diligent with my work I now have all three barrels ready to go for load development, even managed a group with the 6/223 that went under 1/2in at 100m with some stuff I threw together as break in loads. Annoyingly, the Grendel is not yet on the paper.
I hope to have a 100gn NBT going downrange at just under 3000fps from this Grendel, the 100gn TTSX may be just a bit faster due to it's bore riding design.
I'll update as we go.
