I mean if it's a "Just Because" Thing then I'm in, but I was wondering. What is the Draw and intended uses for the 6.5g??

For me the Grendel is not mission specific, it's more "I ain't got one". I have a 6.5 creedmoor that I love to shoot, but its got a 28 inch tube and weighs in around 12-13 pounds so its not really a gun to pack around in the wilderness. I like the heavy, long for caliber 6.5 bullets, and figured a Grendel in an ar platform would be kinda cool to have. Still haven't gotten it yet, looking hard at the Alexander arms upper with a 20 inch tube.

Finally finished the 6.5 Grendel Video that we shot the same day we shot the video for the 450 Bushmaster penetration test Part V.
Enjoy.

Does the first teenager to appear in the video have a left dominant eye? I assume he is not comfortable shooting left handed? Also, watching reminded me why I prefer ear plugs to cans. I can never get them to behave when I've achieved the cheek weld I like. Even the low profile ones I have. I like them when I'm spotting for others, but that's about it.

Hoot

Yes. He is Left eye dominant only. He hates shooting left handed. We have glasses for him but the last session, they got misplaced. And I don't like the muffs either. But it's hard getting these kids to cram stuff in their ears. And the ones we've bought in the past, the kids lose.

I also have been dreaming of a 6.5 but my dreams and pocket book are not in the same place lol.
