Have a few shorties and creating a distance one. I think this cartridge is the best. Good capacity, energy, velocity, weight. I'm in Southern Arizona and looking to learn a lot.
Thanks, Doc
Welcome to the clan, DH, from the geat nation of Texas. You have found the source of all knowledge Grendel. If you haven't already done so, get copies of V's 1 & 2 of the Grendel Handbook. It is an excellent reference. Tell us of your goals and, maybe throw in a pix or two.
I thought about selling my weapons back to the government, but after a thorough background check it was determined that the buyer has a long history of violence and is mentally unstable. Therefore could not pass NICS.
Imaguy,
A freiend just picked up a bunch of loading stuff from you. Thanks....

Welcome Doc from another newbie! Lots of great knowledge here so search or ask away, just passed thru your neck of the woods after visiting the grand canyon with my wife and a fun encounter with a huge confused bear at Bearizona.

Welcome from California. I am new here also, and I think the 6.5 Grendel is the best cartridge for a mini-action, IOW, AR-15 platform. I wouldn't want to be ONLY with this cartridge as it is not capable of taking medium->large game in NA. For the COL, I think it is one of the better, but there's a lot of great cartridges out there. The bottom line is that it really depends on what you plan to do with the cartridge, as well as what you expect of it. I wouldn't take a Grendel out to intentionally hunt bear...although if I only had it I would use it if there was no other choice.
I'm moving to the 6.5 Grendel from 300 Blackout as I was worried of being under armed. I'm not going to give up the 8.6 Blackout.
