[QUOTE="PickettSFHunter, post: 5859692, member: 2171"] I loaded up some 123 SST’s to do some continued pig testing in my 6.5 grendel. I’m searching for the best balance between availability, affordability, and lethality. My current favorite in the Grendel has been the 129 NABLR but it doesn’t check the availability column. I also had a strange occurrence with a 129 ABLR last week. Up until that point, the lethality had been awesome. However, a friend of mine shot a boar with my rifle 5 times before it went down. Granted they were all crappy shots 😂 but I recovered one bullet and it didn’t expand at all. This was from 80 yards with 2350 fps at the muzzle. 129 NABLR’s are supposed to expand down to 1300fps. I’m hoping this is a one off but I admit it has me worried a bit. [/QUOTE]
