I'm debating b/w building a 6.5 Grendel upper for my AR and a shorty 308 bolt action.
I want something I can hunt deer, antelope, etc. sized game with while also ringing steel out to 500-600 yards.
I can build a 18" Grendel upper for about $250-$300 (already have many of the parts). Or I can take that money and put it towards a 16.5" rem 700 AAC-SD in 308.
What would you do and why? (I do reload, and both rounds would be reloaded for)
