Finally got one with the 6.5. 123 gr SST factory load from a mere 45 yds did the job. Complete pass through, very little blood, ran about 50 yds. Weighed 170 lbs
8 point down

Great job! Disappointed to hear about lack of blood...that's why I built a Grendel...to get bigger wounds and more blood deer hunting with AR's...shot many deer with a .223 65 grain game king and 62 grain Barnes ttsx..rarely pass through so you gotta be good and accurate on the heart and lungs...never lost one but I built my Grendel to have a better chance of pass through and more blood/bigger wounds...hope the Grendel does not disappoint next season.
