Guardsman26 Wrote:First post here. Hello everyone. Ex-UK Army infantry platoon leader point-of-view:
...The 6.5 mm Grendel is undoubtedly the best intermediate calibre cartridge available today. Having seen comparisons of its long-range performance versus improved 5.56 mm and 7.62 mm rounds, I am convinced that it has merit. Where the Grendel comes unstuck is through the requirement to fit within the action length of 5.56 mm weapons...
Welcome aboard Guardsman!!!

Looking forward to your highly informative comments here in addition to where I've seen them before.

I concur with your comment about the limitations of the AR15/5.56mm cartridge length and the Grendel likely having the best potential for hunting (and infantry) within that constraint.

Looking forward to seeing how the discussion about the alternative cartridge overall length plays out.

Cheers!
Joe
