This is interesting that you guys are discussing this, because I did a cinder block test ignorant of this thread this weekend down at North Springs. I used the 123gr SST factory ammo from my 16" Grendel, at 50yds.

I have video of it through the spotting scope as well. I need to get it from my friend. It was more destructive than I thought it would be, especially for a polymer tipped hunting bullet that is designed to expand with a relatively soft nose. It went clean through and fragmented the block outwards. It was pretty impressive.
