Where the heck are you finding $6/box Grendel ammo at an Academy or Wal-Mart? Are you thinking 7.62x39?Grendel for me. A big plus is ready availabily of very inexpensive russian ammo with 100 grain bullets. 500 round cases for $130 .Or pick up $6 a box locally at Academy and Wal-Mart, plus decent hunting ammo from Hornady at basically the same cost as 243 pretty much seals it for me. Yes I reload, but frankly my preference is to buy and keep on hand a couple thousand rounds for each of my rifles so ammo cost is a contributing factor to anything I own. I like to hunt (low round count obviously) and plink at 50 to 250 yards. Not interested in chasing tiny groups anymore so whatever is lost to the steel cased imports is irrelevant.
