I, too am from Wisconsin. I just joined up to share the fun. I got a Grendel barrel this week to build an upper for last winter's lower project (see picture below). I have not even shot a Grendel, yet, so I look very much forward to completing this project and having a chance to play with it.
I will largely use it for target shooting, and deer hunting. Perhaps coyote hunting as well, but of course I have the obligatory .223 upper already, and that does a nice job up close. I will have to see how it is with pelt damage, before I get too excited about it, but it will shoot further than the two-two-three...
Looking forward to the knowledge and help this forum has to offer, and I hope to give some as well. The 6.5 is new to me, but I am an uncurable nut when it comes to AR's, hunting, and shooting in general.
