stronger bolt material for high pressure loads??

If a 200-yard . . . For 300 yards . . .

Unless you just like a lot of different guns — and, hell, why not? — the 6.5 Grendel works beautifully at 200 yards . . . and at 300 yards . . . and beyond.

One of the strange mentalities I've observed, and it comes from those searching to somehow make a distinction between the 6.5 Grendel and the 6.8 SPC, is to think that because the 65G does well at long range, it must mean that it ONLY does well at long range, and somehow can't perform at short or medium range. It's the same mentality that says because it does well at punching paper, it SHOULD only be used for punching paper.

I'm perfectly comfortable saying that the 65G replaces the 68SPC at ALL ranges: short, medium, long.

If you want a 68SPC for 300 yards, by all means get one. But the 65G will do just as well and give you range as a bonus. Or is that just crazy talk?

This is where the 68ers jump in and say "But . . . but . . . we have more available PARTS!!!"

P.S. I guess I wandered from my point: Give the 65G BOTH lightweight, low BC pills AND the heavier, high BC bullets. Lots of flexibility built in, no need to limit it one way or another.
