Neat. AND YEP! Grendel can do 500 yards all day long easily. It's an 800 yard round quite handily. And 1000 yard with the eight load. Its one heck if a round!

I was shooting my 18" harden arms Ar with a primary arms glx 4-16 scope. We where shooting 12 inch steel from a bench and bags.. We also had my 6.5 prc and my friends 6.5 creed and a 223 savage out. 50 ° northern Minnesota shooting in tshirts you couldn't ask for a better day!

I also have a 18" Hardened Arms (wish they were still around) in 6.5G and 5.56 and they are both great shooters. I've hit steel out to 1000 w/the Grendel and reloads. Loads of fun......
I thought about selling my weapons back to the government, but after a thorough background check it was determined that the buyer has a long history of violence and is mentally unstable. Therefore could not pass NICS.

Same here I bought the 6.5 first and by the time I had enough money to get a 223 they where closed. My friends and I have been looking for an area to shoot 1000 but no luck so far. Might have to wait until the lakes freeze over again
