why keep the 5.56 ???
#35
If you intend on hunting varmint (smaller than coyote), then the 5.56/.223 fits the bill well. Although, the Grendel will work really well for hunting sage rats etc. It would be way cheaper to use my 5.56 instead. Especially if I am going to be shooting all the live long day. Plus, I won't get as excited if I loose the brass. As far as a SHTF scenerio, the 5.56 is a good size round for stockpiling. Takes up less space in bulk and is lighter in bulk ammo.

Other than that, the Grendel does everything better.
