If I were defending the homestead, I may carry my Grendel in AR form BUT..........most likely, I would shoot my Mini 14 in 223 or my Ruger PC carbine. Both have deminstrated their ability to feed anything I put in a mag and hit where I want them to. Both use the most available ammo in North America. (forgot to state that I lost both these guns in a terrible boating accident). :o
I would only shoot the Grendel if my targets are farther out than 100 yds. Regardless, farther than 50 FEET is an invitation to lawsuits unless the SHTF scenario arises. The Grendel is most likely an "also-ran" caliber like so many introduced since the begining of the new century. It has it's unique purposes but it's not mainstream. I love it for varminting and long distance target/plate shooting but as a defensive caliber.................nope!
