[QUOTE="snox801, post: 2133920, member: 54383"] I understand it’s a fun round same feeing I have with the 6x45 I have. But the fact remains that the Grendel is well sorted and bolts are no issue anymore. Heck you can buy a very functional upper from psa for the cost of most barrels. My point being when comparing Apple to apples the Grendel beats the .233 variants every time. I’ve had thousands of rounds through my grendels and no issues. They had problems at the start but that was so long ago it has no bearing anymore. And yes your bullet selection works for you but in the 100gr plus you give up bc to get it moving which in your case works for your needs. But when someone asks what would be the best all around the Grendel just has it down. For same bullet weight it will always be able to get better bc because it’s shorter. Or even heavier bullets for more thump. Now I am one to love to tinker and love things based off the .223 love my 6x45 and looking at a oce myself but I’m doing it to be a bit different and some fun. But when it comes to him wanting one upper to do it all grendle wins. Say you never stretch it out for hunting that’s fine but to have the option is nice. Or in my brother case. He hunts out to 300-400 with his but shoots comp out to 600 something that would be tough and impossible at 1000 with a oce. Also do us a favor and try some light hammers in your 25. I gave up my 6x45 cause case gave me few options for deer. But then loaded the 70 hammers great speed and able to take deer and hogs. Love that little round. [/QUOTE]
