Just starting my 6.5 Grendel journey; I have a 6.5 Swede and two Carcanos so excited to have another 6.5 caliber in the mix. I wanted something with a little more horsepower for hog hunting at longer ranges when I'm using my AR. Where I hunt I get a lot of 200-300 yard shots which is fine with my 6.5x55/8x57/30-06 I use but having quick follow up shots would be nice. Starting out with a PSA 20" upper, just waiting for scope mount in the mail and I'll get it sighted in. The lower is a Ruger MPR that I really like. I'm now in Texas, but grew up in Virginia hunting the Jefferson National Forest close by every day after school during hunting season.
