Hmm, what is I want to shoot it in a single shot.
By the way, Mike and I are talking about eating crawfish one day for lunch. You in for that?

I liked it as a screamer varmint round. I didn't know it was going to get pushed this hard on the lr side. From what i can tell pulling velocity #'s from jp and rifleshooter out of a 20" barrel (which i have no interest in having longer than on an ar) it's not gonna do anything the grendel wasn't already, with a lot less fpe. I guess i'd put one together if i got out calling more than i do. For the range or med game the grendel's here, theres barrels, theres ammo....why
The article itself and all it's wacky comparisons was kinda silly. So was mentioning it next to the creed it's not even close. I do think it could also be cool if you put it in a mini action like the howa.Last edited by TexMax; 02-25-2018, 11:48 AM.

Had a thread a few days ago on this. If in an ar it's going to be hard to beat for a 22cal. If in a bolt gun (for me) it came down to the factory ammo issue. I wanted a 90gr 22cal factory option and this was it. Ftr I ended up getting a 22creed because my local gunsmith will sell me his reloaded ammo.
