They apparently don't really have that great of a hunting round as you intimate. They rely on their bullet doing nothing more than tumbling because the base is heavier than the point and the bullet is easily upset when it hits a different medium. Tumbling is not a good way to cause the tissue damage most hunters want. Call it what it is....non-expanding ball ammo. Who really wants to hunt with that?

I'm kind of lost. There are plenty of ammo hunting options and non of them are designed to tumble.
Yea would be nice if black hills would start making grendel ammo again. But I'm not paying a dollar around for any ammo.
Well I shouldn't say I won't because I did pay that to test the new Remington grendel ammo for the horde. But I'm not paying it again to keep it stocked in my gun safe
Did you start a thread on the Remington ammo?
