6.5 Grendel - 135gr Berger Classic Hunter - Part 2

This video details a process for comparing the velocity differences between two 18-inch 6.5 Grendel barrels from different manufacturers (Bear Creek Arsenal and Diamondback Firearms). The presenter outlines a methodical barrel swap procedure, emphasizing the importance of consistent components and proper torque. The testing involves chronographing two different bullet weights (123gr SST and 90gr Varmageddon) to illustrate how barrel variations can affect muzzle velocity.

This video details the reloading process for 6.5 Grendel cartridges using 107gr Sierra Match King bullets. It explores two powder choices: Alliant Power Pro Varmint and Alliant Power Pro 2000-MR, presenting load data, seating procedures, and live-fire results with chronograph readings and group sizes. The instructor, Johnny, provides insights into the performance of lighter bullets in the Grendel platform and discusses potential powder suitability.

This video concludes a series on barrel harmonics testing, focusing on the 6.5 Grendel. The instructor tests various muzzle devices, including brakes, flash hiders, and a tuner brake, to observe their impact on group size. While results were unpredictable and often contrary to previous tests on a 6.5 Creedmoor, the series demonstrated that muzzle devices significantly affect firearm accuracy, with dead weight potentially offering a damping effect. The instructor expresses a desire for future testing with flat-based bullets and acknowledges the complexity of gas effects.

This video details load development for the 6.5 Grendel using 129gr Nosler AccuBond bullets, focusing on AR-Comp and IMR 8208 XBR powders. The instructor, with experience in reloading and precision shooting, aims to find a final load for an upcoming hog hunt. The testing involves 10-shot groups to assess accuracy and consistency, with a final load selection based on performance and velocity.

This video details the process of reloading 6.5 Grendel ammunition for a hog hunt, focusing on the 129gr Nosler Accubond Long Range bullet. The instructor tests two powders, IMR-4166 and AR-Comp, across various charge weights, meticulously documenting the reloading steps, chronograph data, and group sizes at 100 yards. The goal is to develop an accurate and effective hunting load, with a particular emphasis on bullet performance and powder selection.

This guide details how to engage steel targets at 100 yards using a 6.5 Grendel rifle. It emphasizes safe firearm handling, proper optic use with a Vortex Strike Eagle, and consistent accuracy from various shooting positions. The video showcases repeated, accurate hits on steel, demonstrating effective marksmanship principles for this caliber and distance.

This guide details a successful method for removing a stuck cartridge case from a firearm barrel using hydraulic pressure generated by a high-pressure grease gun. The technique, demonstrated by Johnny's Reloading Bench, involves a custom adapter and motor oil to hydraulically force the case out. The video highlights the importance of proper tools and high pressure, showcasing a successful extraction that saved a valuable Krieger barrel.

Instruction from a firearms enthusiast and reloader on preparing and sizing 300 Winchester Magnum brass. The video details the challenges of reloading for this caliber, including the long throat of the Thompson Center Compass rifle and the importance of proper neck tension and shoulder bumping. It covers selecting collets, setting up sizing dies, using specialized tools for case maintenance, and determining optimal seating depths for accuracy.

This video provides an in-depth review and performance test of the Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24x50 rifle scope, presented by Johnny, an experienced gear reviewer. The review covers technical specifications, a practical tracking test (box test) at 100 yards, and optical quality comparisons with other Vortex models. Johnny highlights the scope's First Focal Plane (FFP) reticle and its value proposition for its price point, while also noting limitations in optical clarity compared to higher-end models.

This video provides a comprehensive guide to reloading .22-250 Remington ammunition, focusing on a Remington Model 788 with a Douglas barrel. It details component selection (brass, bullets, primers, powders), case preparation, powder charging, bullet seating, and initial range testing. The instructor emphasizes accuracy and velocity, aiming to develop loads suitable for varmint and deer hunting, while also highlighting potential challenges with certain components and the firearm's specific characteristics.
