The Grendel is capable of pushing a 140gr to 2500fps from a stronger action, but with a different COL. The problem is, you don't want a 140gr for riflemen. Too much recoil, too much weight.
130gr is the maximum you really need, and even then, I don't want riflemen hosing away in close quarters with that load. 130gr is perfect for a belt-fed, and can be pushed to 2600fps from a stronger action with 2.400". BjornF16 has done just that with his Savage and a 20" barrel.
