Sold mine 😀

In im also thinking of getting one myself

I want one

Yes I do. Killed everything is shot with it. Very accurate and it performed well with 120gr fusions. The Grendel is on the bottom. 6.8SPC on the top.

What length are each of those Marsh?

The Grendel is a 20” and the 6.8 is 16”. Both shoot better then I can shoot them.

I have two. A 22” Satern barreled build and a 16” Faxon barreled piece. The 22” shoots Hornady 123s(SST and AMAX) at @ 0.3moa. I’ve killed a few hogs and a doe with the SST.
I’ve shot my 16” very little.

I’ve had a couple, and might build another, but they didn’t suit my specific purpose at the time as well as a 6.8 or regular 5.56 did. If I get back into stretching AR15s past 3-400 as a rule, it’d be the better non-wildcat for that. As it is, I get better use out of lighter and shorter hunting ARs inside 300, or stepping up to an AR10 in size for longer range. If you need one gun to do both and don’t mind some extra barrel length and weight, to optimize it, the Grendel fills in great. Yes, it ‘can’ do good hunting work at normal hunting ranges, and with shorter barrels....it just isn’t as optimal for those criteria (IME), as the 6.8, but loads/powders are changing all the time, and there might be a factory 120gr Grendel load that gets more than 2400fps from a 16” tube, but the 2700-2800 I’m seeing with the 120gr accubonds in the 6.8, were a better prospect at the time, since I wanted a light, short gun that’d work the best inside of 300, handloads or not. I only have one AR with longer than 18” of barrel. I personally hate long barrels on ARs.....but the 6.5 will work short, it just isn’t nearly as efficient or fast out of the gate, the more you go under 22-24.

Ive been eyeing a 6.5 grendal for a while.. Broke down and order the 18" upper kit from PSA this morning

Should be a handy gun.

I have one and like it. Shoot 120gr fusions out of it

I have two, one with an 18" Odin Works barrel and the other a 12" Faxon. Both shoot 123 SST's very well. The 12" gun is a little more difficult to shoot. I average about 1.5 moa with it, but regularly shoot under 1 moa. It also shoots 129 ABLR's fairly decently. The 18" gun is just awesome. I've taken it out to 760 and took 1 Sitka Blacktail at just over 400 yards with it. Very capable easy shooting little round.

I have 2, it's my favorite caliber. I am getting rid of one of them to build an grendel pistol since both off mine are long barreled if anybody is interested. It's very accurate. Asking 900, for it. 24" radical firearms heavy stainless barrel. 16x swfa mildot scope, Caldwell bipod, S.SA.L.T. one piece mount. Have shot it about 150 times, I was getting .5" groups with factory ammo and a milspec trigger. 2052883866 if interested I'll text pics, don't know how to post them on here.
