Hello from Lipan, Texas

Howdy y'all!!!
My name is Gene and i have always loved the AR platform but always hated the 223. I have a couple SR-25s ( one is a Mark 11 Mod 0 ), and 5 ARs, but only one of them now is chambered in the 6.5 grendel. I love that caliber. It seems just right for that platform. The SRs are just too heavy, and like i said, the 223 is just too weak...

I hope to learn a lot here about reloading the grendel. Maybe i can also make new friends that might live in the DFW area who will want to get together to shoot since i live in the country and have my own range an hour west of Fort Worth.

Sincerely, Gene

Ain't it grand to have a shooting range on your back porch? I am so blessed to have a 30 yard pistol range, 100 yard rifle range, and a 50 yard archery range. And the goats keep it mowed for me!
