New Howa mini build 20 Grendel

[Gabe22BR]

If you get the 20BRAI & 55gr Berger down to 3300fps- you’ll get soot clean back to the rim of the case- on the verge of a disaster-
You get the 55gr in a 20ppc case to 3300- it’s a warm load..sure the ppcAI would tote it on up some..to 3600 or so....???

I’d only choose the 1-8” for the VT case .. for lobbing the 55grs… Evan had a 6 page thread on it- search function works-


Earlier searching-2010-2005- shows the 1-8 in 20BR had some 55gr bullet failure -…

20 Grendel is ready ! 55gr bergers are awesome. This is just fireforming brass and not running it stupid hot. 100 yards with 25mph gust.View attachment 1606853View attachment 1606851View attachment 1606852

Nice shooting. Which Arken EPL is that? How do you like it so far. I have a Howa mini in 6.5 G and like it a lot. It wears a Krieger barrel and shoots phenomenal also. Now you got me interested in this wildcat.

Thanks. Epl4 4-16x44. I love it, not much more recoil than a 22.

Should be able to test this weekend. Hoping for 4k easy with these. Going to stick with 8208 with this load too.

Heres the reamer is used. The PTG 20 Grendel reamer has a slighty smaller neck at .2330 vs .234 (titan) for Lapua brass. Been waiting for the Alpha 22 Arc brass to cone out to see how it turns out when necked down.

20 Grendel with the AGM Spectrum 4k LRF on top and that Coyote Cannon out front. 55gr Bergers ready to rock a coyotes world day or night. Trued the built in ballistic calculation and shot at 300 yards on the money.

Reamer has been ordered and is setup for the 55gr bergers at 2.200 oal and 6.5 lapua brass necked down. No neck turning required. Was waiting for Alpha to release brass to check beck thickness but decided to order one.

Good Shot!
How fast was that round going?
I had to slow down the playback speed to 0.25X to see where the crosshair was when the shot broke. Where did it hit? Was that in the head, neck, shoulder?

I missed a little forward. Should be some chrono data above this post.

Late to this thread but gotta ask- those 39gr speers stay together in an 8 twist???

Haven't tested them yet. I will probably have to slow them down so they don't blow up.

Nice rifle rifle man. I was curious because i shot them for years in 204R and man they really pop crows. They look “tender” lol probably one of the most explosive ive found besides sierra BK, although not as accurate.

You can shoot those in a 10 twist. They shoot very well in my 20s. Just FYI. 4200 fps is easy.

Figured so. Might have to try a 10 twist eventually.
