Welcome and great summary. I too love the 6.5 grendel in ar15. Very similar situation, looking for a light recoiling hunting legal caliber in AR15, mine is 9.5# with optic.
Grendel can handle big game not just medium, the hunter need to understand the round and its envelope and choose an appropriate bullet, but there are folks on this board hunting Elk with them with success. The gentle recoil is what lets the hunter put the round right where it needs to go and that produces DRT results.
