Another interesting aspect about the Gren is the low SAAMI pressure spec of only 52K psi.

With a long sleek bullet, like the 129gr LRAB, it would mimic the effects of the longer throat of the 5.56/.223Wylde vs the .223. I commonly load the Wylde to 60K psi. With 748, that gets me to 2600fps in a 22" barrel, and 100% fill.

At my altitude, that keeps your velocity at 2k all the way out to 500 yards, and still above 1450fps at 1000 yards.

129gr bullet at 2600 out of a standard AR frame.....hmmmm, that could be interesting.

I've noticed that very slow bullets don't "cut" through bone like higher velocity bullets. It seems like they break off bone, often in larger chucks than you expect and you end up with some pretty nasty secondary missiles anyway. The crushing and cutting can be pretty impressive with slow, black powder velocity projectiles.

That’s my plan. Just got a 20” PSA upper and for this year I’m using the 123 ELD Hornady ammo, but once I get some time I wanna crunch up some 129’s cause if exactly what you mentioned.

I’ll take my chances with the Grendel cause I know it really isn’t a chance. grin

Beretzs,

Here's what the quick load for you 20" barrel looks like with the 129gr LRAB:

Code
Cartridge          : 6.5 Grendel  (SAAMI)
Bullet             : .264, 129, Nosler AccuBond LR 58943
Useable Case Capaci: 29.619 grain H2O = 1.923 cm³

I'm diving in with the 129 LRAB too.... At 3800"+ it might work well enough I can put the big cannon Creedmeister away.. grin

That’d work okay for me. 129’s at 2400 would be a sweet combo in my book.

Cast hard, and moving anywhere from 1100 to 1800 fps at the muzzle.
.460 hole going in and .460 hole coming out.
Take a half inch hose and see what kind of stream it produces.
If your frangible perfect bullet blows up on entry you lose.
The 6.5 bullet has a history of being a fine penetrator. I killed many deer in my youth with a 6.5 carcano with some ranging to 350 yards.
Don't have a Grendel but wouldn't hesitate using one at the same distance if I could still see that far😁

In closing I just have to say...... DLA is a poor Hunter past 200 yards

Ok Mr. Nuclear Rocket Surgeon, how long is the wound channel neck with a 45-70? Especially a WFN bullet?
Right - ZERO.
The 45-70 cannot be made to crush less than a 1/2" hole all the way through.

But a 6.5mm is 25% of the frontal area of the 45-70 (33.2mm vs 126.7mm).

The problem isn't lack of penetration, the problem is the lack of tissue damage due to lack of velocity.

We've already demonstrated the absurdity of this claim. Reading comprehension doesn't seem to be your strong suit.

Now go play with your Barbie Dolls, grown up are talking.

Did you attend a bad public school? Struggling with reading comprehension? Butt-hurt because you're too stupid to defend the Grendel against the onslaught of truth?


LMAO!! laugh
I guess Kel-Tec doesn't make a 6.5 Grendel or we'd be hearing none of this nonsense.

Reply to this is simple - B.S. Op has little or dare I say no real world experience with the Grendel. Now for 12" barrel length and a non hunting bullet the OP's statement may hold some water. A number of good hunting bullets would do very well out to over 350 yards in the right hands. One of my favorites is the 129 GR SP over Lever evolution. this is yielding 2700ish FPSat the muzzle from a 24" barrel.

To be fair I may not know what I am talking about either, as I have yet to need to take a shot over 100 yards on game with my 6.5 Grendel.

At my altitude, that keeps your velocity at 2k all the way out to 500 yards, and still above 1450fps at 1000 yards.

129gr bullet at 2600 out of a standard AR frame.....hmmmm, that could be interesting.


I hear what you're putting down, but oddly enough at least in my Grendel, the ABLR tops out a little slower than I expected compared to some other bullets. Part of that is probably due to the long nose and deeper seated base to stay within mag constraints (2.300" with ASC mags). I'm able to push a 140gr SGK to about the same velocity as the ABLR (a little under 2250 fps for both), based on case life with loads for both. That's not exact of course, but it's using the same brass, powder, and rifle for both loads. However, at 2,240 fps for my 129 ABLR accuracy load, it's plenty adequate for as far out as I care to shoot. Note that this is similar muzzle velocity to a lot of older "deer gun" cartridges like the 30/30 and 35 Remington, which have killed tons of deer over the years, but that ABLR is a modern bullet design that extends the range and performance envelope significantly.

I will say that when I used this bullet on deer last fall, it was devastating. The exit wounds were larger than my fist, with chunks (not just spray) of lungs and other tissue on the brush around the deer. Since impact velocity would have been somewhere between 1800 and 2000 fps, the 130gr AB probably would have worked just as well but the ABLR gives a wider range of performance in this low velocity round.

I remember watching a tv show that was interviewing a sniper that had served in Vietnam. He was sharing a story about the VC using a water buffalo as concealment as they walked between rice paddies. He said the buff had too many legs. So he shoots the buffalo. If I recall he said it was 900 yards.

Now his 308 and load wouldn’t be considered a buffalo round at any distance, much less 900 yards but it did the trick.

Waiting on a new Grendel barrel to get here, but loading test rounds with 123 gr A max's, 100, and 120 gr Ballistic tips, and 123 gr sst's.
All set at 2.250.

Yeah but probably only 199.9 yards... LMAO

Slow kills. My civil war musket shoots some kind of round ball but I only run about 60 of FFg. Never had an issue with it either.

DLA needs to get real life experience, not paper.

Sometimes I think DLA is a special person other times I think he just wants attention, and then other times I think he is someone’s sock puppet. Then I go back to his love of Keltec and the special person moniker fits better. He has nothing but personal attacks when he defends his position, so he is probably a democrat as well. I would be delighted if he would post a picture of something he has shot, or some gun he owns.

A chunk of lead from a Sharps moving at subsonic speed will kill a person (Indian) in Mr. Dixon did but now your comparing apples to oranges! I still wouldn't want to be shot with a Grr at that distance regardless! Just saw a video of a guy shooting the lowly 22lr at ballistics gel at 300yds and it was still penetrating 11+ inches at that distance, no expansion but still impressive for a 22.


MAGA! This is the way!
