Performance
Proponents assert that the Grendel is an ideal middle ground between the 5.56 mm NATO and the 7.62 mm NATO, taking the best attributes of each. It has a flatter trajectory and retains greater terminal energy at extended ranges than either of these cartridges due to its higher ballistic coefficient. Production rifles have consistently achieved sub–minute of angle (MOA) groups at test ranges out past 600 meters.
