Hello from Lipan, Texas - gene - 08-22-2011
Howdy y'all!!!
My name is Gene and i have always loved the AR platform but always hated the 223. I have a couple SR-25s ( one is a Mark 11 Mod 0 ), and 5 ARs, but only one of them now is chambered in the 6.5 grendel. I love that caliber. It seems just right for that platform. The SRs are just too heavy, and like i said, the 223 is just too weak...
I hope to learn a lot here about reloading the grendel. Maybe i can also make new friends that might live in the DFW area who will want to get together to shoot since i live in the country and have my own range an hour west of Fort Worth.
Sincerely, Gene

Ain't it grand to have a shooting range on your back porch? I am so blessed to have a 30 yard pistol range, 100 yard rifle range, and a 50 yard archery range. And the goats keep it mowed for me!
Hello from Lipan, Texas - gene - 11-04-2011
Sheepdawg, I have 15 acres half way between Mineral Wells and Stephenville, just an hour west of Cowtown on 20... also have the rifle range ( 200 meters ) and goats!!!
Hey yall!!! Lets get our Grendels together some Sunday!!!

Hello from Lipan, Texas - Grendel-Gene - 11-16-2011
Hey fellas! This is Gene! I decided to spice up my nickname a bit and went to "Grendel Gene". Ha ha!!,
Anyway, i will be off the week of thanksgiving and if you guys want to do a little shooting, i have the range just an hour from cowtown. So Dawg. Traxx, Zilla, Yut..... lets talk.... and then shoot grendels ( or anything else - i even have a barrett).
