Is anyone aware of a round that does for the AR10 what the 6.5 Grendel did for the 308?
To me the Grendel took the AR15 from a marginal whitetail gun to a perfectly viable one.
I'm looking for something that takes the AR-10 from a marginal to effective elk gun. I think 6.5 CM is a bit light.
I'm aware of the 300 RSAUM and the 300/338 RCM. I think these are close but do not have the short case that the new long bullets need. I'm thinking it a fatty 7mm that falls somewhere between 7mm-08 and 7mm Mag is what I seek. Probably magnum width but not quite there in capacity. 7mm PRC maybe.
I know Nemo and others make long action AR-10's, but I want to juice up my existing receivers.
Anything out there?
Thanks.
