I don't have access to a chronograph so I was wondering if anyone has shot the 123 grain A-Max's out of a 20 inch barrel and could tell me what velocity they're getting
Range Report 6.5 Grendel Velocity

Re: 6.5 Grendel Velocity
Sorry, was in a rush to get it posted. I'm talking the factory ammo, not my own load.

Re: 6.5 Grendel Velocity
prolly looking at 2400 and some change, that Alexander arms stuff is nice but....the sd can shift.

My 18" Saturn Grendel does 2500fps w/ Hornady factory 123gr Amaxs in 80*. I would bet the 20" is 40-50fps faster.

Re: 6.5 Grendel Velocity
2400 would be dam close. Handloads you can get to 2550 with a 26 inch barrel and the 123 lapuas.
If you are going to handload try the 108 lapua's. You might like them.

Re: 6.5 Grendel Velocity
my 20" satern barreled grendel did 2478 low to 2528 high with factory hornady 123 Amax loads, my reloads with 29grs of aa2520 gave me between 2550-2587, with better groups and its much cleaner.
