I was wondering when that was going to start moving again.

I think it's been rolled off and named 4 different times and trying to squeeze it into some sort of legislation so it can get through, fingers crossed

Texas got your 6!

Scroll down to forth article in link, Texas already passed the Approved the Hearing Act, just waiting on the Federal side.....

Forget the hearing protection act, it was just permanently canned.

Yep. And binary triggers, bumpfire stocks and gat cranks are all gonna be gone as well.

The HPA died out when the Congressman was shot in the baseball field and now the SHARE act has died out with the Las Vegas shooting.

Legislation be emotions... such crap.

Can anybody educate me on the differences between 6.5 Grendel and 6.5 Creedmoor? Trying to decide which to get for my next AR

6.5 Grendel can be used with your standard AR 5.56 lower and upper. You just need a new BCG, barrel, etc...you could build a new upper and use it on an existing lower. You can use standard GI aluminum mags too. It's crazy how tight the tolerance is between the mag and the bullet tip. Like a thou-2thou clearance.6.5 Grendel is also a few hundred FPS slower than 6.5 creedmoor so the bullet drop is close to the same as the Creedmoor. 6.5 Grendel is also harder to find in stores unless you order in bulk online.

6.5 Creedmoor you'll have to build a whole new AR out of .308 components.

Edit: I priced building out a high quality AR 6.5 creedmoor and for a few hundred bucks more I could have JP Enterprises build it for me. JP Enterprises are the Ferraris of AR's and my buddies JP AR is a half MOA gun out of the box and is the finest AR I have ever shot.

With all the recent talk of a slide fire being used in Vegas it seems they are flying off the shelves. I have been asked multiple times this week if I had one and if I wanted to sell it. While Congress is going to talk about this kind of stuff I doubt it will actually do anything.

Yep, I bet it's the same with binary triggers as well...

That's the type of info I was looking to hear. Thanks for your thoughts

Yeah there will talk, but not sure much will happen. At least not any time soon

One last thing, to get the max FPS out of a 6.5 Grendel, you'll need at least a 24" barrel IIRC. And the shortest barrel you can run reliably is a 12" I believe. I've read about guys running that short here lately and they all seem to like it. It's a much more capable round than a 300BO, just not as quiet suppressed.
