6.5 Grendel Pistol ballistics and questions

[Sic Semper Tyrannis]

I'm excited to be getting my 6.5 Grendel Pistol soon. It's a AA 11.5" Pistol. I was wondering what the velocities are for 123 gr or commonly used Grendel ammunition compared to an 18" barrel. Does anyone have chronograph info from their Pistol builds to compare? Just curious how much velocity and energy I'll be losing from the 11.5. I'll be running it suppressed 100% of the time with a surefire 6.5 socom rc2 suppressor.

For my 12.5 Faxon, I was seeing 2300ish FPS with 123 ssts.

With 129 ABLR, I get 2125-2150 at max loads.

Max loads of what? My 129 ABLR load for my 12.5" group buy barrel averages 2240 fps with 26.4 gr AR Comp

My 12" budget PSA 6.5 Grendel with Hornady ELD Match 123 SST will get ~2125 fps.

This is Alexander Arms ad. for a 11" barrel. I don't know if claims match reality. http://www.alexanderarms.com/images/pdfs...Tables.pdf

IMR 4895, 8208, and BLC2. None of them broke 2200 on max loads.
