What is it about the Grendel?

[Mav714]

I'm really impressed by the answers I've gotten. The fact that we have such a great forum full of people willing to help each other out is just awesome. The other reasons I agree with too, great long distance, AR capable, cool name, Bill Alexander brains etc.

Would you happen to like .308 performance in an AR-15 platform with the accuracy of 6mm PPC? Yeah, I thought you would.

I fell in love with the 6.5 caliber when I bought a '96 Swede 30 years ago. No matter that I had just progressed from a lee (mallet type) loader to a single stage, I couldn't put together loads that were worse than 2 moa. Then I found the AR 15, even in it's early, not so reliable versions, it had the best ergonomics I had ever handled. Long range power, not so much.

I went through the usual AK phase and loved the reliability, accuracy, not so much. The FAL came real close but I missed the AR ergonomics. I finally took the plunge and bought a brand new Armalite AR 10. Boy!... I just knew I had it now. Factory mags, top grade ammo, good scope and the dang thing just wouldn't function. Two trips back to the factory and still no joy.

Long story short. I read about the Grendel. Jumped on the Midway website and before long I too had my very own laser Star Wars machine. Who needs the .308 now?

Thanks cousin Bill,

A Alexander
