With bullets hard to get, I bought 5 boxes of Hornady 123 gr SSTs to load in the Grendel when complete. I know that the SST is a hunting bullet, but I did not want to pay the price for the Lapua bullets to practice with. The Grendel is a few months away and started thinking about loading them in the bolt action 6.5 CM to hit steel out to 550 yards. Again, I know they are hunting rounds, but I needed bullets. The BC for that bullet is as good as the ELD but the ELDs that I shoot are 140 gr. Does anybody shoot the 123s on steel out to 550 yards? If so, how do you compare them to the 140 ELDs? Are you loading towards the max side of the load?
