My mini-Mauser is really making me want another Brno rifle!

This is getting away from the "thrifty ammo" part of the OP at a high muzzle velocity.

I understand that for quality the thrifty part is out the window now lets talk about easy rechamber cause now i have a 800 $ gun thats bout usless sept for cheap plinkin ..ill either rechamber for grendel hunting rounds if possible or abort the whole swap

Does anyone have any info on 6.5 grendel hunting rounds for deer

It would be much much more cost effective to either sell or trade the rifle for something you can buy "match" ammo for. OR start reloading.

I don't think you ever said what exactly is your accuracy expectation for this rifle vs what you're actually getting? Tell us more about your specific setup, such as optics ans any accuracy improvements you've tried and lastly what ammunition have you been using?

Being 100% proprietary I don't think just anyone can get a 6.5grendel reamer

Have you tried any of the commercially available 7.62x39 hunting ammo in it yet? Remington Express, Winchester Super-X, Federal Power-Shok???? If all you have shot through it is surplus it's like ditching a Ferrari after only testing it out in 1st gear.

I know for a fact that a 527 can be converted to 6.8. A few years back when it first came out I read an article in Buckmasters Rifle Hunter magazine featuring a custom 527 in 6.8spc. But maybe they used a modified .223 bolt, I have no way of knowing.

Another possibility is a 6mmAR, basically just a 6.5 Grendel necked down to 6mm.

Here's a thought, call me crazy but if you're ready to drop around 600 hundred bucks on rechambering and rebarrelling wouldn't it make more sense to just get another rifle in a .223 or something? that seems to be a far better idea IMHO.
just a thought.
