18" 6.5 Grendel AR-15 Upper Assembly | SHAW Barrel | 1x8 SS Bead Blast Rifle Length HBAR Barrel | 15" MLOK Rail
Far from being just another niche option, the 6.5 Grendel is a meticulously engineered solution for the AR-15 platform that brings the legendary medium-range authority of the 6.5mm bore to the small-frame gas gun. This system thrives with high-BC, heavy-for-caliber projectiles, specifically tuned for 123gr loads to provide unrivaled energy retention and terminal performance. If you're building a dedicated deer and hog rifle or a precision target rig, a 6.5 Grendel upper assembly offers the flat-shooting stability and massive knockdown power required to push the limits of the small-bore gas gun.
