Our military adopting the Grendel?

[stanc]

Stan, Why don't you outline the tests you would like to see. Be as specific as possible. Detail the tests in the order you would like to see them performed, from most desirable and necessary to least desirable and necessary.

Then place a value on each, and detail how much you can contribute financially to that specific test.

Many of us would like to see some of the same tests you would. I have the rifles to allow me to do all that testing, from a 16" to a 28", with multiple different projectiles already loaded, including even a few of the FMJ's, and I know where I can get more.

What I don't have much of is time, so being able to specifically target the tests and set them up ahead of time would be reasonable. I suspect there are a few others here who could and would be able to perform a few of the tests as well, especially if those tests relate to something they want to investigate.

Then maybe we can get it done.

Thanks, Bill. But I'm not calling for my proposed tests to be done. Besides, I've posted them before, most on the old forum, one or two here. There seemed to be little interest, and some objections.

I'm more interested in seeing what tests other forum members would do to substantiate their claims that 6.5 Grendel would:

• Improve long range engagement ability of riflemen.
  
  
• Have much better terminal effects than 5.56 NATO.
  
  
• Give a LMG equal or better performance than a 7.62 MMG.
