I’m a big fan of the 6.8 SPC for deer hunting. I have used it for years and really enjoy it. If I didn’t already have the 6.8, I would lean to the 6.5 Grendel. Practically speaking, it and the 6.8 are very similar hunting cartridges so it’s a tossup.


I’m leaning towards a .450 Bushmaster for something different to use with a Hybrid 46 but that’s another project down the road.
