New 6.5 Grendel AR

[bigwakes]

Just got my Sabre Defence Upper last week. Took it to the range yesterday and I was very impressed with the results at 100 yards with iron sights. It has a 20" stainless barrel, free float tube, and YHM BUIS. At the moment it is sitting on a Spike's lower that I built for a different upper. It will soon have it's own Sabre lower.

Hornady 123gr AMax at 100 yards with iron sights. The top shot was first and the other three were the last three shots.

How do you like the Grendel so far? I have been thinking about getting a 6.5 upper for my AR.

So far I'm impressed. The ammo is not easy to find, but so far I havn't had too much trouble. It's my first non 5.56 AR and I really like it. Of course, Sabre makes a top notch gun. Can't wait to see what happens when I put a decent optic on the thing.

I will keep an eye out for more range reports.

I like it!! Looks like 'ya need to start reloading. That will get the best out of the Grendel.

By the way; a 4 by 2 at one hundred yards with iron sights aint bad for a new gun! (...keep holding where you did for the two bottom right shots...)!

Keep us posted.

Lookin' good! What optic are you looking at installing?

Right now I'm leaning towards a Leupold Mark AR 6-18x40mm. Not dead set on it, but that's what I'm leaning towards.
