I think the Grendel offers more energy, but the 6mm is very close, and the advantages of being able to use the same magazines, only sizing up some cases, makes a strong argument for the new 6mm round.
Only if you are content with the smaller, less-capable bullet. To get the 6.5 I'm willing to jump through a few hurdles. Now that I've acquired a few 6.5 mags, the mag issue is a non-issue. I'm getting close to that point on brass, as well.
