I know that they are different, but I am looking at them from a longer range standpoint.
6.5
Pros
Shorter barrel is ok
Wolf will be releasing ammo soon
less wind deflection
204
Cheaper to buy factory loads?
Can use .223 magazines
flatter shooting
Uses
Mostly looking for longer range varminting. Crow, praire dog, up to canine. I know that the grendel could do more, but...
Seems that a .204 barrel would be all that would be needed for the .204, and an upper would be needed for the grendel. Thoughts on these two?
