You guys do realize this is about penetration, at least that’s what I got from the op.
Fwiw, I doubt anyone would choose a 6.5 Grendel over a 300 magnum if they were grizzly hunting, but being that most of us on the forum live in Alberta I don’t understand why it always has to come back to grizzlies. I’ll bet 99% of the people on this forum haven’t even seen a grizzly in real life. I’ve seen a total
of 5 in my life, and one was in the park. Never once did I wish I had a 300 magnum when I came across a grizzly.
The topic is about penetration, maybe leave the grizzlies alone since they’re protected.  |
When I brought that comparison about it has nothing to do with actually hunting them or even self defence ( i do have some experience ) it is just a relavent comparison of where the comparison between the two falls apart again im a fan of both cartidges.
Weight and mass play a big role in bullet performance that often gets forgotten when crunching numbers
