Quite a mild 75.5gn of ADI 2217. As I've gone for accuracy and brass life over stonking velocity. Using PPU (Privi/Highland) brass and CCI Magnum primers.

What I've done for the 300WM loads for a Sako A7, is to have 180gn SSTs to fit the mag for general hunting within 300-350m. As the A7 has a stupidly short magazine. Even factory 180gn soft points are...

I have a spare .223 mag spacer if required, as I run detachable mags in mine.

But yes, there should be a spacer in the internal factory drop plate mag.

As others mention, S&B and Privi stuff is easy to get and wont break the bank, ie $45-$50 a box. Federal (blue box) will usually be around the $65-70 mark.... so ouch.

I can’t speak from experience with that projectile personally. I’ve previously used the old AMaxes in a number of other calibres for hunting and had good (if spectacular and bloody) results.

123gn SSTs or ELDs are the go to projectiles for the Grendel.

If its a lightweight short range bush gun, you could chop down those 22" barrels to 20' or even 18" to save more weight. I wouldn't go any shorter though.

Why turn a longer action Sako into a shorter one? If I ever rebarreled my Sako 270 into a different calibre, it would be to 6.5x55 Swe.
