My short-range Grendel all around bullet desires are not met! Heck, even 15 cents would be ok. LOL Can't locate a darn thing of interest. Come-on man!

in my Grendel Bolt Action, I have been able to locate a fair stock on close out at cheap prices...or just cheap prices in ratio to other bullets

1. 85gr HP Sierra
2. 90 grain TNT
3. 95 gr V Max..
4. 100 gr SP Hornady
5. 100 gr Sierra HP
6. 100 gr Ballistic Tip
7. 100 gr Partition
8. 100 gr A Max
9. 100 gr ELD/Match

and try this one on for size

10. 105 gr SMP Nosler Partition...

30 grains of W 748, has them running out the barrel on my Ruger American Predator in the 2900 Fps Range....

The 90gr TNT over H335 shot really well from the Howa I had, and they're cheap.

I've been playing with the 6mm PPU 100-grain soft points. They seem to be a good shooting bullet, plenty accurate. Haven't killed anything with them yet, but plan to use them in my 6mm Remington. I expect typical cup-n-core performance from them, which should be adequate. They're very inexpensive.

A 100gr Hornady SP is exactly what I'd like. Something equating to an upsized 224 Hornady 55 SP or the Nosler 6mm kangaroo (Shots).

95 V-Max, yeah.

Guess any of those would work, if I can find 'em.

I loved the cartridge, but hated the rifle, so I parted with it. I'll probably end up getting a RAR in Grendel eventually. At the time when I got the Howa, Ruger wasn't offering it in a bolt yet. I had a RAR in Blackout for several years and loved it, but a friend made me an offer I couldn't refuse on it last fall.

Thanks, Dinny

The Sierra 85gr hp shoots outstanding in my low wall .260, so I can recommend those. I’d not shy away from any of the Speer offerings if you can find any - they’re generally less expensive too.

used a 140 Speer SP out of my Grendal and took a big bodied buck season before last...

2250 fps MV.. deer taken at a little over 100 yds.... in and out performance... dropped it on the spot, not ONE step taken after being hit..

killed it instantly....
