It was basically accurate, had a lot of typos, sentence fragments passed off as sentences, but generally a good article in content with one exception on the ammunition.
I guess 92 factory loads is "few" factory choices. Even if we rule out the smaller shops, we have plenty of options from Alexander Arms, Barnaul, Barnes, Federal, Hornady, HSM, Nosler, PPU, Remington, and Wolf. With several big manufacturers coming online with 6.5 Grendel in the past 2 years, I would say that's going in the same trend line as 6.5 Creedmoor, and I'll bet that way more 6.5 Grendel ammo is made and sold for several simple reasons:
* AR15 compatibility and semi-automatic
* Steel case availability
* More affordable
It will do nothing other than continue to spread. Neither of them are going anywhere but up.
Quote:Presently, it seems 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition options are heading in opposite directions. While not a scientific survey of the market, it appears there are few factory choices in Grendel and more in Creedmoor.
