6.5 Grendel fans....
« on: October 26, 2012, 11:39:39 PM »
I got my issue of Shooting Times in the mail today, and the cover story was about the 6.5 Grendel, and why the US military should replace both the 5.56 and the 308 with this single round.

Good article.

Of course that is a great round.. but only if you can shoot straight...   :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:  Pretty equal to the .257 Roberts actually..  :boxin: :peep: :con: :hunt2: :bumpin: :bumpin:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

The only difference between the 6.5 Grendel and the 257 Roberta is the the Grendel qualifies as a rifle cartridge.....   Just sayin'.

only in the hands of inept wetside shooters that drive hot pink electric prius's to come over to the right side of the mountains to hunt and set up trail cams, but never comes to visit his friends and have a beer......   :nono: :nono: :nono:  when he is only 20 miles away.
