I have two Grendel's and could not find enough difference between them and the ARC in an AR platform at AR pressures to justify purchasing one.
My brother bought an 6 ARC about a month ago after one of his guns was stolen and has killed 4 or 5 does at 200 yards with it using the 103 ELDX. They shot better than the 108 eldm in his rifle. He shoots mid to high shoulder shots and was getting golfball sized exits. The deer didn't travel far at all except for one that his son made a less than optimum hit on. She went 75 yards or so. The boy just doesn't shoot well. Never has. He shoots like he pitches. All over the place. My brother likes it but he said he would like to see more kills on heavier bodied bucks and hogs before passing judgement as to whether it kills as well as his Grendel. He has piled them up with his Grendel and a 123 SST over the past 8 years to the tune of about 20 a year between himself, his son, and his daughter. I'm sure he will gather a lot more evidence for the 6 ARC next year as he's prone to shoot something very few other people have and then call it the best thing since sliced bread.
