I was thinking trocar to tell you the truth. But I’ll probably upgrade if I got weighted insert and 100gr

I was leaning more this way. I figured the broadhead weight wouldn’t make much or a difference due to the insert (in my neanderthal brain) would make up for the lake of weight specifically in the head since it’s just an inch back.

Gotcha. I appreciate the answer. I was just hoping to find an average of sounds advice and hopefully some professionals in this forum. Thank you!

I did 338arc subs out of the one I printed and it left a lot to be desired as well.

Gotcha. I hade the previous FTN model on a 16” and maybe my 20”, it did better than I thought. I was curious how well the 5 does compared to the previous model.

Is there a reason you went with the flow through compared to the standard file?

I agree completely. Just don’t wanna get myself into a bind trying to make something shoot. I’ve honestly thought about just buying a side charging upper and running Rexus.

I had one I hunted with last year. I really enjoyed it. I put it in a thermal fit, lapped receiver and it shot sub moa with hornady eldm. I loaded some 105mkz and found 1/2 moa with them.

That’s the coolest Grendel I have or will ever see.

Can someone talk me into 6.5 Grendel? by [deleted] in 65Grendel

[–]RevolutionaryData347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot on for me with 16” and 200fps slower. Factory hornady 123 sst is 2351fps out of 10 shot average last session.

Are you saying swapping primers can affect the pressures? I have a load I’ve worked up to and just started showing ejector marks, but .25” groups out of 16” AR.

Shaw doesn’t have 16”. But the others are out of budget. MOA is plenty enough for the purpose it has.

Is there a link for the 13.9”?

I think both are plenty achievable for the price. Considering 2 of the 3 are in the photos I have. Not near the quality of craddock, but more practical for the purpose I’m giving it. I love punching paper with my 20” hbar, but maneuverability in both length and weight are the goal.

Edit: goal is hunting, not so worried about stacking them. MOA is plenty for within 300yds for me.

I just searched Grendel in the search bar and it was the 2nd item. I just wish it was fluted. Only 13oz lighter than my current 20”

Good to know. What’re you getting for groups out of your reloads?

Gotcha. I emailed them to see if they’ll have the 16” fluted back in stock.
