Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Bullet Wt Preference for the 6.5 Grendel..

I'm not a fan of the 100gr NBT at Grendel speeds. IME it acts more like a varmint bullet. I have settled on 120gr Rem PSP-CL bullets and 100gr Nosler Partitions. The Partitions are loaded to 2800fps with A2520 and the CLs are loaded to 2300fps with CFE223. For longer shots I would consider the 129gr ABLR with it's low velocity expansion capability. I killed a young buck with an ABLR two years ago.
