Hornady Manufacturing Company develops and publishes reloading data for the Handbook of Cartridge Reloading. Occasionally, we will temporarily publish load data on this page when a bullet becomes available and is not yet listed in the latest edition of the handbook.

Re: 6.5 Grendel loads? Not certain how the balance of your chambers are cut, but both of my Grendels-one a 24' Satern and the other an 18' AA barrel-are touching the lands with 123 AMax at 2.255'. At mag length of 2.265 or 2.270', you're.010 into the lands and setting up for a pressure spike-or leaving a bullet in the lands if trying to. In developing its 6.5 Grendel load data, Sierra tested a very wide selection of propellants, 19 in all. For the 85gr to 100gr varmint bullets, modern powders such as XMR 2230, Power Pro Varmint, and Ramshot TAC offered the best velocity in the 24″ test barrel.
