Grendel strikes again!

Don't be afraid of light super fast bullets, Hammers kill way above their weight. I'm pushing the 85 grain in the Grendel to 3000 FPS. Killer out to about 400 yards. That's my limit with that setup.
Thanks all of you, I've put some serious seat time in waiting for a good one. Seen some great stuff waiting. Turkeys walking up to the Rhino blind to look in. And no I wasn't tempted to grab its neck.
I'm always tore over this. Everyone says the 85gr 6.5. But I'm running the 97gr absolute at the same speed as you out of a larue upper. 18" I was able to lean on my 16" howa bolt much more and get past 3100fps.
With all things being equal I like the extra weight. Curious as I've never run the number which one would be better at distance. Absolutes don't have the best bc but dang are they fast.

Congratulations on the buck.
 
Gday rosebud
Congrats
I have a real soft spot for the grendel & only shot it once with a mate in Sacramento
Yep one shot 2 critters 🤣& I'll never likely shoot another round in the grendel 😜 but I'll down load my beanmore & become reminiscent 🤣

On pills I'm with snox on the 97AH as it shows it's strengths especially as the critters size increases & opens works @ lower impacts than the 85 hh also

Cheers
