6.5 Grendel really released to SAAMI?

[OldCannon]

The Grendel is still listed at the US Patent and Trademark office. You can check it at http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/index.jsp.

Until that happens the process will not start. It usually takes about 10 days to handle this but again. Its the first step.

The process is the process. It does not lie.

Believe what you want, but it's a SAAMI cartridge now and AA has explicitly said it "will relinquish its federally-registered trademark and that "6.5 Grendel" is to be the common commercial name for a cartridge that adheres to the specifications adopted by SAAMI."

Further, unless you're manufacturing barrels or ammunition, it didn't affect you anyway.

But thanks for playing The Pedantic Game™.
