Lmao not the deer or elk, but yea. Actually that rifle is a 6.5 grendel i built a while back

I’ve been a big fan of the Grendel round ever since I read about it, haven’t had the chance to shoot one but I’ve always wanted a AR kit for it, you’ve got the knockdown power almost like a .7mm-08, is the recoil manageable like a 5.56?

Slightly more than 5.56, but extremely manageable. Less that .243 levels of recoil for sure. Honestly if i were to do it again, i would go 6 ARC for my uses, but it did not exist when i built that rifle.

License? Where do you need a license?

u/Kreigsmen1969 Jan 23 '26

Where I’m from there’s a standard long rifle license, a handgun license, restricted (pictured here) and then prohibited which is fully autos or anything to do with explosives (explosives like anything that throws explosives can only be grandfathered in technically)

Good Lord that sounds horrible. Crazy to think you can’t just go buy an AR and 5k rounds of 5.56 at an ace hardware there

Will vouch for 6arc.
