I’m building my son a 6.5 Grendel to hunt with next year and am in need of some brass.

I’d consider ammo as well as I’ve seen some pretty good deals on sst ammo on here.

I found some brass. There’s about 100 pieces left if any wants to know where I’ll send you a link.

I could use some 6.5 sst 123 bullets now.

I built an ar grendel. I couldn’t get the 123 SST to fly. Tried the 95 VMax and they work great. I might try the 120 eldm as well.
Just an FYI

Thanks for the heads up. Though I just purchased some from scheels for a a pretty good price. We’ll see I suppose.

What barrel did you use? Twist, length

I just got some 123 SSTs from Midsouth. One of my local shops here in WA had a pile of several types too a week ago. I was going to try to buy brass/bullets but the loaded ammo was near the same price as the components.

I've had great luck with 123 SST and killed a nice chunky doe at 200 yards this winter with it. They've been kind of a pain to find lately. They make a 123 ELD-m that supposed to be designed for the Grendel that might work well on deer and antelope sized critters.

I need to check but I might have some Hornady brass. I'll shoot you a PM if I find a usable amount

I also just got some of the 123 ELDMs (Hornady Black) locally. It's all a bit pricey, but going to try them and the SSTs on deer this year. The Grendel is going to bark this year!

@NRA4LIFE so which one was it midway or midsouth lol.

What part of WA? I grew up in Port Angeles.

I can’t find loaded Grendel for less that $30 a box.

I’ve recently purchased enough components to keep me going for a while, though if I ran across some brass for a fair price I’d probably pick some more up. I kinda went over board on buying powder 🤦‍♂️. I can load for about $1 per round. Reloading would obviously be cheaper.

I got SST ammo from Midsouth and Bullets from Midway. $30 ammo is going to be cheap for anything other than Wolf steel case stuff. I bought a couple boxes locally of the Hornady ELDMs for aroud $33 I think. I live near Maple Valley.
