    Hello from Europe

    Hello, I'm new @ 65grendel.com, living in a small country in europe.
    I never saw someone shooting a Grendel in live, because here in europe the Grendel isn't common.

    Because of my results with the 6.5 Creedmoor and the Grendel is interesting me since years it's now time to converse my old Sako 6PPC to a rifle which can hit targets @ more that 300m!
    I have a few questions, which will be soon posted in the bolt action forum, hope you can help me to find the right setup ;-)

    Welcome, You are in the right place to get all your questions answered. Which small country are you in?, I too am from a small country in Europe but I have been here in the US for a number of years.

      Welcome A1Vixen! What country are you from and shooting disciplines do you participate in? What are the laws like there regarding private ownership?

          I'm from Luxembourg, our rules for private ownership are not that unbureaucratic as you have them in Texas, but better than California and the UK ;-)
          I'm shooting Long Range, which isn't really easy in Europe, because there aren't lot of shooting ranges you have acces as civilian.

          @Kilco. I saw these videos and those were one of the reason why I want to have my old Sako now in 6.5 Creedmoor.
          The 6PPC barrel is end life and I do not shoot lot on 100&200m, so there's no reason for me to rebarrel it in this caliber.

                Welcome! I once had a 3 1/2 hour "business" lunch in Luxembourg in my prior life. Replete with cognac and Habanos!

                  Welcome!

                  Your American (English) is far better than my French, German, or Luxembourgish.

                  Well..... I used to speak enough French and German to get by, but haven't used it in 3 decades....so even if you only knew 10 words in English you would still be better than me... haha.

                    But English is my worst language, I'm lot better by speaking and writing the other 3 languages you enumerated in your post.
                    But I'll try to do my best that you'll understand what I want to say/write.

                      Lol. Enumerated... Something tells me you'll be fine! Your English is probably better than mine. Don't sweat it.

                          Nothing kills the incentive of men faster than a healthy sense of entitlement. Nothing kills entitlement faster than a healthy sense of achievement.
