6.5 Grendel bolt gun with 123 ELD Match

[308skinner]

Anyone have any loads with them? Have a Howa Mini 1500 coming and wanna get going on it.

Xbr 8082 and cfe 223 are good powders to start with. Xbr should max about 28-28.5 grs and 223 maxes 31-32 grs, although 223 is more forgiving when looking for pressure signs so you may be able to go further.

Look at 65grendel.com for loads of recipes
