Hornady American Gunner 6.5 Grendel - NugginFutz - 01-16-2019
Two Thanksgivings, ago, it was on sale for Black Friday @ $109.99, both online and in the stores. Online was free shipping. How do you beat that??!!
I was hoping for a reprisal, this past Thanksgiving, but no soap. Still, not a bad price for quality ammunition.

Anyone try this out of a 12 barrel? Just got my PSA SS upper to dip my toe into the 6.5 game.

I am about to build my 12.5 inch G and plan on using this ammo, but has anyone used their 300blk yet? Curious on the performance of that as well. Thanks.

I’m only getting 2326fps out of my ballistic advantage 18” barrel.
Shoots good though. 1” dot 100yds

Anybody else have their order cancelled recently (today) with no explanation? They've had my money for almost a week. Still shows "in stock" at the same price on the Sportsman's Warehouse website.

I picked up another box recently when I was at sportsman’s warehouse. Really wish hornady would release this bullet for reloading.

Probably has something to do with an issue with your shipping address. Call them.
They canceled my 2nd order, after already shipping the first order to the same address, when they apparently realized it was a “P.O. box”. When I called to find out why the order was cancelled, they said the “don’t ship to p.o. boxes”. Anyway, after I explained they already had with the first order, and some pissing and moaning on my part, she went to her boss for approval and they got it out within a day or two. I’ve purchased another 2 or 3 large orders since without any further problems or delays. Goes right through online now.
Only thing that still irks me is they hit me up for VA state sales tax, because they have a store here in the western part of the state, even though the order ships from Utah. Go figure.

Shoots well out of the 300 BO. Absolutely no issues

Turns out the reason they canceled my order was that Sportsmans Warehouse was in the middle of raising their price by $50 a box and dropping their free shipping offer. Guess they didn't feel like honoring the price they sold it at a week ago.
Hornady American Gunner 6.5 Grendel - hill37 - 01-26-2019
Moved Grendel up to same price as AR 10 ammo. Does anyone know how much the other AR15 calibers went up?
Hornady American Gunner 6.5 Grendel - SpinyNorman - 01-26-2019
.223-$149.00
.300-$149.00
6.8- $159.00

That just sucks.
