i have some cash and have decided on a 6.5 grendel upper. i in intend to use it as a dmr or spr or whatever
so the questions i have are as follows. i have a regular lower for 556 with a commercial style m4 stock. will it be enough for the 6.5 grendel and would a sixteen inch barrel be enough to reach out and touch somebody when shtf |

It'll work on your lower, no problem.
As far as SHTF scenarios go, in that unlikely of situations, would you really wanna be lugging around a rifle with a round that's not readily available in any quantity? Do you see a need to reach out and touch people that you may not know of their intentions, much less with a carbine? |

I'm sure a good 6.5 would be better at even longer distance. SHTF shots will probably not be that far. In a SHTF situation I'd feel good with my 5.56 or 6.8. Keep plenty of ammo on hand no matter what you choose. |
