Actually I think I might have come across a video of his on youtube. It is an interesting round out of an AR.
Out of an AR with limited magazine lenght it would be nice. Out of an ordinary bolt gun I can see no reason why not go 6,5x47 or 6,4 Creedmoor. If you want moderate velocity with 32gr powder, but 32gr powder in the bigger case and get the same velocity. My action was a 6PPC so unable to use a longer cartridge than 6,5 Grendel.
Very happy with my Grendel, but cannot see a reason to power-handicap oneself unless magazine lenght dictates this cartridge.
My data:
Barrel Lilja 20"
Bullet 123gr Amax
V0 775 msec/ 2540 fps
Powder CFE223 30+ grains
Accuracy so far has been "disturbing".

"disturbing" as in f*** how did I miss the 20ft barn? or F*** is that 4 shots in the same hole?
Ah this is a new youtube, one I missed....that is some grouping.
A lazy on top of each other at 484m. Impressive.

Doh !!!! Just re-read the rest of the post ... @Norway already posted ... :sick: :wtfsmilie: :geezimfuckedinthehead:
Very nice :cool:
I have a Grendel to put together & sort out tomorrow.
I could only dream about it shooting that well :thumbsup:
AR15? A mate is doing it to a CZ527 conversion from 7.62x39 to Grendel which has triggered my interest in the cartridge. I must admit seeing some of the accuracy this 6.5mm can do (yet its based on the AK round) and its adequate energy I am surprised that its not got a big following.
