Neat post! Thanks for sharing.
I will say, this part right here is key. While I agree with everything you said about the Grendel shining, and I think it's the best-choice round for that application; the big one is you knew your kit. If someone really knew their .223 AR, and were running a 20" BBL with 77's, they'd be hitting that 700 yard target all-day long. But even with that, they wouldn't be hitting it nearly as hard as the Grendel does!
I'm kind of surprised people were showing up with 16" M4's and 55 ball.

Joe (with the new 6mm ARC) came to class with a new barrel and new scope. The bugs werent worked out. It showed.
