OK to start off I am definetly buying one of these to put on one of the group buy lowers. I started out wanting a 6.8 SPC. Have already picked out the upper I want from Bison Armory. But after reading for the last few days it appears that the general concensus is that the 6.5 Grendel is the way to go. I have seen the comparative ballistics charts and scoured the 6.8 and 6.5 forums. Ammo is not a deciding factor since I reload. I am looking to put a good piece of glass on this rifle and use it for target/hunting. I have a few questions.
Anybody own one of these and how do you like it?
Has anybody hunted whitetails with either of these?
Is there a reliability difference between the two?
Does anybody happen to own both and want to let me shoot them?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that there also appears to be a larger selection of 6.8 uppers out there compared to the 6.5. If anybody knows of any reasonably priced (under 750) 6.5 uppers let me know (so far Alexander Arms appears to be about it)
