As a company known for setting benchmarks in the ammunition industry, Hornady employs rigorous testing and quality control measures, ensuring each round meets their high standards of reliability and precision.

I have 3 6.5 Grendel builds in 16", 18" and 22", and all 3 seem to like this 123 grain Black. I have tried 5 or 6 different brands in the same weight, but this stuff really gives great results down range. 16 and 18 inch are giving me 1"-1.5" groups all day long, and I'm good with that. My 22" is a Bear Creek Arsenal brand, and this ammo is producing 1/2" groups pretty consistently on a nice day, 3/4" any other time. Try it, you won't be disappointed. Jim W.
