[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1542272, member: 10178"] I shot a deer with the same upper you have. I had to send mine back and have the barrel replaced because the first one shot between 5 and 6 inch groups but after replacement and about 70 round down the tube I consistently get 3/4" five shots at 100 with my handloads. I shot the 120 Speer Gold Dot at 2550 fps with 28 grs IMR 8208, Hornady case, CCI 450 primer. Doe at 111 yards facing me shot in the center of chest DRT. AWESOME results, pulped chest and penetrated about 20 inches and exited out the belly about 6 inches before the crotch. While going through the ordeal of shipping tag with the BCA I built another AR from the ground up using an 18" Oden Works barrel package. It flat out shoots. Hunted with it some but did not see any deer. It is my opinion that the 6.5 Grendel is THE AR-15 platforms best all around caliber. [/QUOTE]
