My 6.5 Grendel

[Deltagunner00]

Love this caliber for yotes and long range plinking. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

Good looking rig-how about some build details? Just as big a fan of Grendel as you, and a generally under appreciated caliber in the bigger picture.

Of several I have, your build very closely mimics one with JP barrel, SLR GB, Seekins HG, Geissele NM, Mack Bros suppressor, right down to tripod. JP barrel easy to load for and a hammer suppressed or not. 2525-2550 with 120 Scenars, Nosler BT’s and others in 18” barrel.

What made you go with the grendel over creedmoore?

 

[CaptNemo]

AR-15 = Grendel
AR-10 = Creedmoor
It’s cartridge length vs availability magazine length

Okay thanks! That makes sense.
