    Does any member reload for a 6.5 Grendel?

    If any member reloads for a 6.5 Grendel? I would be interested in what loads etc they are using.

    Thanks.

    6.5 Grendel

    There's been 126 views of my post, am I the only Grendel owner on this site

    Must be I think.

    It's a great round anyway and I'm pleased with it.

    I presume not many replies as it is not a common round over here as more popular Stateside on the AR platform

    Laurie Holland has commented /posted on this round on various UK websites

    6.5 grendel

    No, because he has a Howa mini Mauser model and I have a CZ 527 MTR, so different in some respects.
    I've been experimenting with all the usual variables i.e. powder load, powder type, seating distance etc etc.
    A lot of variables as with any new rifle to ascertain the best combination, great fun and I find this part so interesting.
    I've just bought some "improved" PPU cases to see how they perform, about 2/3's of Lapua price for 100 cases.
