Anybody have any experience with this round in ar platform ? thinking of putting togethor another ar in this caliber. Any suggestions or opinions?

AWESOME round! Spend some time researching the ballistics and the fact it's a great AR round, what's not to love?

Never heard of it. If you find out anything about it, please post your results.

It sounds interesting. I think I might have heard something about it like 20 years ago. But it must not be real popular.

Adding purple where needed??

No experience in an AR yet, but I did have a 22 Hornet H&R rebored and rechambered to 6.5G. Unfortunately my chamber was cut too deep and ran into problems after only 200rds were fired. I found it to be an excellent cartridge that is capable of much more than it's small size would indicate. I really want one in a bolt gun!

Thanks, Dinny

I thought I added purple. I am so ashamed.

I've shot Melensdad's and it is a very capable round.
On the shooters side of the muzzle, there's only a little more thump than on a standard 5.56 ar.
On the other end of the muzzle you have probably the best long range ballistics that you're going to get from an AR-15.
