Hello all, just got a 6.5 Grendel on trade. Pretty sure it's not a high quality setup, but I am anxious to see what it can do. Plan to use the search function a lot, it's a 16 inch barrel, with carbine gas, so I know that's not optimal, but hopefully it will do until I can find something better or upgrade it with an adjustable gas block or something.
I was looking for a bolt action mag fed .308 when I stumbled onto this Grendel thing. After a bit of study I think I am in love... lol. I wanted an all purpose somewhat lightweight hunting / all purpose mid range gun. Both for hunting, plinking at longer ranges and for some competition use. I do a Run N Gun here in Oklahoma at least once a year, and having cheap wolf ammo for some of that really increased the appeal of this gun. I was already a believer in the 6.5, as my main hunting rifle is a custom built Rem 700 in 6.5 Sherman, so this seems like the perfect little brother to that rifle.
Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
