Old new guy - central Texas - 603 Country - 04-17-2022
Just bought a Grendel, so I thought Id learn more about care and feeding. Im a hunter (deer, pigs, coyotes) and paper puncher. A couple of weeks ago, my grandson shot a big hog with the 223 AR and said we needed something with a bit more thump. After much research, I went with a 6.5 Grendel.
I spend a little time on a couple of other hunting/shooting forums, using the same name, which some of you are likely to recognize.
Other than that, the wife and I do some RV-ing and live on a small ranch, where we moved after many years in Houston. She gardens and I woodwork. Retired since 2009.

Ill post pics of pigs when I can, but recently the pigs have disappeared from my cameras. Now, with the new rifle, Im like a woman all dressed up with no place to go.

Welcome aboard!
Houston humidity is brutal man. Did you get far away enough from that?

Welcome to the forum 603, I think we started our Grendel journey just about the same time judging from your posts on the other forum.

We lived in Houston for 35 years. Moved to the country when I retired in 2009. Much less humid up here in the woods. And so very quiet. We have plenty deer up here, and usually a bunch of hogs. Theyve left me, but the neighbor (200 yards away) has hogs all over the place. Odd.
