6.5 Grendel scope?

Looking for advice on a scope for my 6.5 grendel AR. It’s a 24” SS barrel, will usually be running with a suppressor. Just shooting paper from 100-500+ yards from a bipod. Thank you in advance for any advice. Haven’t picked a pet load yet, but it will be target loads.

 

I’ve got a Vortex Viper PST 4-16 Gen 1 on my Grendel AR. Works well and no complaints. If I was doing it again I would likely go with a Tract Scope. A little more money, but I believe it’s a little better optically.

How much money are you willing to spend? That makes a big difference in what I’d recommend.

 

I’m on a shoestring budget. I’d like to keep it in the $500s or less.

 

If you are interested in a Vortex, Burris, Bushnell, or Nightforce optic, get with a mil/LEO/instructor friend. It’s well worth it.

 

My Grendel has this on it, I really like it. But I’ve only had it to the 100 yard line. It’s first focal plane. Well under $500 OTD @ Cabela’s

I actually am doing something kinda similar myself, I recently got a 7.62x39 (6.5 grendels parent cartridge) upper for my SBR ar-15 and I'm going to put my current scope from my 270 on it and buy a nicer one for my 270 later this month with that "extra" check lol. Scopes should be in my sig.

 

I ended up putting a Vortex 4-24x50 on it. Love it! Shooting sub moa

 

Well you pulled the trigger too fast.
Should check out Natchez for the Weaver 3-15 Tactical. $499 for a scope that cost twice that when it was released. That is what I run on my Grendel gas gun.
