Hey, guys, just for fun let's keep an annual tally of game taken with your 6.5 Grendel. Paul of "Buck2732" has volunteered to compile an annual tally, so even if you make a post on your hunt, consider also sending him a quick PM on your kill info so he can keep the list updated.

"The hoard", If you could include range and round used, I could included that as well.
Next year I would like to publish the results monthly.
Many thanksLast edited by Buck2732; 12-30-2014, 08:15 PM.Buck2732

(1) 110 lb whitetail doe taken at 53 yards with 123 A-MAX on top of 30.3 gr of CFE. 18" BBL
Hit low behind shoulder and exploded. Both lungs, bottom of Heart, and exit-side shoulder thoroughly destroyed. Bullet fragments found all over wound channel.
20% of deer's total meat wasted, not shooting anymore meat animals with A-MAX. Sorry for ranting, I should have chosen a different bullet though.
It might be worth including overall bullet performance on the tally, maybe a 1-5 (5 being highest) scale judged by the shooter on how well they think the bullet performed on the given target. I'd give the A-MAX a "2" for deer. It died quickly and not far away, but not in a manner I find acceptable for a meat target."Bugout bag?..What's that? Is that all the junk you sidewalk commandos plan on humping when the SHTF? I'll grab a Nylon 66, a box of 22s and a poncho liner and in less than a week I will have all of your stuff and everything else that I need for the duration."

Excellent description!
