    Powder and project recommendations 16" Grendel

    Hey Team,

    Looking to start reloading for the Grendel. I have a 16" Howa Mini - though looking at data wish I chopped it at 18"
    Looking for something solid to 300-350

    Narrowed projectiles down to
    120gr Speer gold dots
    100gr or 120gr ELDMs
    90gr TNTs

    Be keen to hear powder suggestion. Done a lot of reading but keep going round in circles. BM2m 8208, lever evolution, cfe223, w748, varget, 2206h.

    Looking for some guidance from the collective Grendel nuts.

    Cheers
