Bavarian Tactical Systems BTS-15 6.5mm Grendel

The BTS-15 in 6.5mm Grendel is a ballistically excellent AR15 from the German-Hungarian manufacturer Bavarian Tactical Systems. The aim of the BTS-15 models is to bring an affordable yet reliable AR15 to the market - whether as a complete weapon for the shooter who does not want to spend too much money or as a base weapon for the tinkerer who wants to equip their AR15 with different components. The housing and various small parts are produced in-house, while other parts are sourced from established companies to create a complete weapon that offers a very good price-performance ratio. It is a MilSpec AR15 with a free-floating barrel, M-LOK handguard, and folding sights. The weapon is delivered with a Magpul MOE stock and a Magpul Pmag.

What is special about this variant is the caliber: 6.5mm Grendel is indeed a niche caliber on both sides, but it is characterized by its excellent ballistics. It was designed to fully exploit the capabilities of the AR15 platform - in the right configuration, the projectile remains supersonic at over 1,000m and has better ballistics at long distances than the .308 Winchester. With most loadings, the caliber has over 2,000J at 100m and is therefore suitable for large game!
