[QUOTE="Downrigger, post: 32414, member: 201"] I purchased the grendel about a year ago. The original was a match grade shilen which I just replaced. I'm trying the stoner grendel II chamber and that barrel is set to arrive in a week or so. The shilen was great and I recommend it to anyone that might shoot factory ammo. I had the opportunity to sell the upper for a good price and took it (maybe dumb move but with hand loads the stoner reviews were fine). The 6.5 grendel is a low recoil round that shoots a 6.5mm bullet. It's a small caliber round (short, shoots small rifle primers) that has very minimal recoil. I was shooting 85 gr for yotes and 125 nosler a for deer (have not shot a deer with the gun). The hardest part was obtaining the dies and brass but better now. I highly recommend the caliber and can get you in contact with the company that helpeD me build mine. They were very knowledgeable and can also provide custom paint job which as you can see I did not do. I apologize as I wrote this on my iPad. If anyone wants more details on the caliber please let me know and I'll get on the laptop. Also if you google 6.5 grendel there are a ton of resources available. If someone purchases one I am more than happy to share my reloading data. [/QUOTE]
