What did you fire today?

[Alan]

Did you take any shots today? I’m curious to know what you fired and how your session went!

 

[Roughrice]

Over the weekend, I shot my 284 Winchester, 22 ARC and of course my trusty old 308!
That little 22 ARC is fun and has proven to be a deer killer as well.

Just the old .22LR. Working on some load development in the 308 and 6.5 Grendel.

 

[Roughrice]

What are you shooting in your Grendel?
Bolt or AR?

 

[LM2003]

What are you shooting in your Grendel?
Bolt or AR?

I have both . I’m currently working with 120 Speer gold dot in my bolt gun. It’s showing fantastic results so far.

Those seem to be great deer bullets from what I’ve seen on video reviews.

I have loads of 123 SST, 100 ELDM and 90 TNT.
Killed a couple with the SST’s and one deer with the 90 TNT a few years ago.

Love the little cartridge!

Ive killed a truck load of deer/pigs with the 123’s. Those SST really shine in the Grendel. It’s my go-to tx hill country caliber.

I’m running CFE223 with the SST at 2530-2550 FPS out of my 20” Howa and it shoots great.
It ballistically matches my Trijicon BDC reticle out to 400 yards

I like the Grendel so much that I’m having a 14” barrel cut and threaded for my Savage Stiker pistol to run suppressed.

 

[LM2003]

Try the Speer GD I’m getting 2600+ in my howa. I can’t say the powder bc it’s off label. lol

 

[Roughrice]

Understood!
Lots of my handloads are off the chart as well! Lol

 

[LM2003]

Any experience with the Jefferson outdoors floor plates for the howa mini ?
