300HAMR is easy answer, especially if you already have a 6.5 Grendel.
1) Accurate & Reliable 300-400 yard hunting cartridge with no pressure issues or concerns about bolt failure.
2) Velocities either match or exceed 6.5 Grendel for same bullet weights.
3) Inexpensive to Reload;
a) easy conversion/forming 300HAMR cases from .223/5.56 cases.
b) huge selection of projectiles: uses popular .308 bullets from 110gr - 150gr. Due to the 6.5 premium and the .308 production volume discount, .308 bullets are less expensive than 6.5 bullets.
4) Proven terminal effect on wildlife. Bill Wilson has personally tested the cartridge and ammunition (various bullets) over past 3-4 years and has racked up a substantial kill list in excess of 3,000 hogs!!!
