Would it be reasonable to buy an AR in 6.5 Grendel when you don't own an AR in 5.56? Is loaded ammunition available? This would be a rifle that would be not shot often. I have just never been that interested in getting an AR. I own a Mini 14 and that has always been enough to satisfy my urges to blast away from time to time.
There is an article in Shootimg Times magazine on the cartridge and it makes a lot of sense to me. There is one term or series of terms that I don't understand. They list drop say for the 6.5 Grendel at 300 yds as 5.1" MOA. At 300 yds, 1 MOA is about 3", so is that 3"+5.1"?
Would also like to hear views on the caliber in general.
