Fur friendly 6.5 Grendel bullet

I went out this morning for a quick stand and took the Grendel. I loaded some Nosler 100gr Custom competitions last night, a very mild load thinking they might not expand overly. WRONG the first one came into about 30 yards quartering to me. I laid it in just behind the should and exited just aft of the diaphragm, he looked like he jumped on a hand grenade. At least he had crappy fur so I don't feel to bad.

Mini Howa 20"HB bobbed mag w/Meopta Artemis 1.5-6x40mm, a handy little rig for on the bike even with the 1 1/4# scope.

You sure it wasn't hit by the train or bike in the picture? Pretty suspicious lookin' setup to me...

Kidding aside, I haven't found my Grendel to very fur friendly with any of the 3-4 different loads that I have tried in it. Dandy contest gun, though. There have been more that were significantly damaged than not out of about 20-25 I have shot with it.

Your motorcycle setup has definitely got me thinking about some things.
