It looks okay to me. Just make sure you understand what those numbers actually mean. The 6.5 Grendel is a fantastic match round, especially for longer-range shooting. It is also good for larger North American game that requires plenty of penetration (big hogs, elk, brown bear, etc.). You really need a longish barrel to take maximum advantage of this round. 18" barrels are typically the shortest you'll find. It isn't so great as a combat round, as the wound profiles from the various loads don't match the ideal profile very well. The bullets penetrate pretty far before beginning to yaw and tend to overpenetrate in that arena. It also doesn't do nearly as well in short-barreled rifles, which rob a lot of the velocity from the bullet. -Troy |
