How could or should the 6.5 mm Grendel be improved?

[Bill Alexander]

Indeed. That's why about a year ago I was pleading for somebody to conduct gel testing with the pre-production Wolf FMJ load, to see if the different configuration offered any improvement in terminal ballistics over the Norma FMJ.

The Norma is a target bullet and it is absolutely rubbish in gel.

If I was to look at the problem I would prefer to see generalization above specialization. Think blind to barrier AP with a smattering of anti personnel thrown in. First rule is always hit the target and make a hole in it. I like to see things that are velocity insensitive even if they do not look that pretty in formal gel testing.

The pre production Wolf was not this level. It was an unhappy projectile and all the work would yield would be an unsatisfactory result.
