Kansas City Checking In

[KC_Joe]

Good Morning,

After some discussion with my son, he's decided to deer hunt in the fall of 2024.....seemed like the perfect opportunity to pick up a 6.5 Grendel upper and start some load development . Placed an order, and am currently waiting for everything to arrive. My hope is to get at least 100rnds down the tube before starting to work up a load with Hornady SST bullets, probably over H335 since I have that in hand. Will also plan to spend the spring and summer months at the range practicing.

Welcome aboard. What upper did you get?

18" PSA. I'm pretty new to the AR-game and have read fairly good reviews on the PSA stuff, seemed like a good option to start with. I have an older DPMS lower that I'll pair it with, and depending on how it goes, might have to look into something that matches, and is a little more fancy.

Welcome to the clan, kc_J, from the great nation of Texas! Keep us posted on progress and, as always, pix are appreciated. Is hunting a new "thing" for yor son or is it just using the Grendel to do so?

[KC_Joe]

Hunting will be a new thing for him.....he shoots from time to time, and shoots well, but mostly plays video games. Getting him to the range and woods a little will serve him well (I think).....thus far, my huntin' buddy has been his older sister.
