[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1813447, member: 10178"] IMR 8208, CCI 450 primers. I have been using Hornady cases and shooting 120 gr. Sierra Pro Hunter and Speer Gold Dots mainly. I have set both of my rifles up to hunt under 300 yards but most will be under 100 yards. Some really like ARcomp powder but I have not tried it. I started out with IMR 8208 and it worked so good why try to fix it if it ain't broke. I am going to give H335 a try with some 90 to 100 gr one of these days. Many over on the Grendel web site (6.5grendel.com) use this with good results. One thing that I found and others have also is with the Hornady 123 SST bullet. Your rifle will either like it or hate it. Both of my rifles hate it either in factory ammo or numerous hand loads with different powders. Best I could get with either rifle was about 1 1/2". What upper did you get. I hope it was not a Bear Creek Arsenal or one of the others that use their barrels. [/QUOTE]
