Good job on the hog Zen.
Question for you.. Understand this new rifle is the Grendel - but,
- Which Hammer bullet do you see best accuracy and terminal performance from your 6.5 Creedmoor ? Load data would be excellent also.
TIA.
 
What species and max distant hunting? Go to for "most" circumstances is the 124 HH.

Mostly Hogs. My lease ridge overlook allows up to ~700 yds for range.
After doing some additional searching, found your post on favorite the 124 HH.
Do you have a preferred powder ? I am running a 22" 65 CM from Criterion on my gas gun.
-
My current load is 143gr ELDX over RE26,, but have RE16, Varget and H4350 also.
Suggestion for the 124HH from a 22" barrel??

If you're truly sending it 700 yards stick to Hammer Hunters.
 
For those looking for the 124 hammer hunter 6.5 Creed load, I've used 48.0 of R26 with Hornady brass in 4 different rifles with excellent accuracy and multiple one shot kills on hogs and elk. I also use the 124 in my 6.5x47 Lapua and have killed multiple hogs with it. It's a great bullet.
