So far, in a std AR15 platform, I hold this cartridge with the highest regard.
We have stepped on over 220 hogs this year since June. Mostly shot with 5.56 chambered AR15.
By far, the most one shot stops DRT kills were with a 6.5 Grendel with devastating results.
Getting 2580fps using factory 123gr V-max Hornady ammo @ 1moa accuracy. Great all around 600 yd performer.
Every hit on a pig looks very similar to these. It splits the hide upon exit. No doubt when looking over the field after a fire fight which hogs were hit with the Grendel.
