Yes, you can also build a dedicated rifle in 6.5 PCC as well.

The Grendel is a fine round, however, having to pick-up expensive
brass in the woods or at the range is a pain in the butt.

Dedicated bolts and mags are also a pain in the butt. There
have also been a few Issues with bolt breakage and feeding
problems with the Grendel by some owners...

But like I said before overall the Grendel is a fine round
and I think It will do well provided It gets consistant
Industry support.

The 6.5 PCC is just another alternative for those who reload
for thier AR-15 and want a lower cost 223 based option and
still have a low cost 6.5mm Intermediate cartridge...

Having more options Is always a good thing for the AR-15 specific
cartridge like the 6.5mm PCC round. Yes, It can be used for/with
heavy subsonic loads/work with better accuracy and less recoil
than the .300 AAC BLK.
