To my mind, it's like an experimental chambering in, oh, an FN SCAR or an AK or a SIG551 in 65G. And I'm all for experimentation and innovation, the 6.5 Grendel itself being a premier example of thinking outside the box in order maximize performance within the box, so to speak.
So, having said that, more power to 'em. I hope Elkbow will keep us updated on his project. (Just don't try anything crazy, man! Be VERY careful if you're trying to squeeze 6.5 Creedmoor performance from the 6.5 Grendel case, is all I'm saying!)

Don't worry John, I've been shooting for 45 years, reloading for 30, I'm open to what things will and will not do. I know I won't be hitting Creedmoor specs, why, I have a DPMS 6.5 Creedmoor that was one of their team members that has a few tweeks. Can't say I like carrying it around.
There are several other members on here going to give it a try, so I think there should be some good reports.
