Stick with a .30 cal can for 6.5mm gas guns is a good guideline to follow.
I would have to agree .. 30 cal cans on the 6.5 Grendel work great
I was here once .. Got killed by the site .. Back again but not much

I have a Surefire SOCOM 762 Mini and a SOCOM 6.8 RC. I have run them both on my 18" JP and the 20" AA. They both work great and I can't really tell a sound difference between them(full disclosure, I have some hearing loss in my right ear); the 762 Mini MAY be a tiny bit louder but that is all subjective. What I did notice is that the 762 Mini has less back pressure due to the larger bore.
I run a SOCOM 762-RC on my 20" .260 and runs nice. I am going to order a couple of the Thunderbeast Ti cans. Had a chance to shoot them and they are NICE! I really want to try the 6.5 Ultra 7 on my Grendels.
