    I run 2 loads in my grendel
    90gr TNT in front of 29.5gr bm2 for goats and smaller stuff. They work very well in this and I can load them cheaper than I can buy 223 round.
    Then I run the 123gr eldm for deer in front of 8208. Have shot red stag at 300 with this round. Just put it in the right spot.
    Cowboy, Micky Duck and Glenshee like this.
