Most likely to be use for training that is my guessI don't get it. Maybe I should, but I don't. I thought performance of the 5.56 fell off sharply as the distance increases.
But at $1600 retail?Most likely to be use for training that is my guess
The question is not what works best in competition, but what Ruger assessed would sell well.
Clearly 6.5 Grendel would be a more appropriate round (along with many others) than 5.56, but just as clearly Ruger estimated that 5.56 would sell better. Probably because (surprise) most people buy guns that look cool to them, but are in cheap familiar calibers, and very few actually compete.
No need to overthink it. Just marketing. Be thankful for the 6CM!
6.5 Grendel would be a better choice for this version. I have the other in 6.5 Creedmoor.
The appeal of this would be a trainer for your bigger RPR, I'm surprised a 300win mag hasn't came out yet.
I thought the RPR's would accept any mag in the mag well and that was one of their big selling points?
