The Grendel has minimum body taper while the x39 has plenty.
The Grendel is a great round but needs barrel length to achieve its potential.
The Army won’t go back to the M16 sized rifle anytime soon. The only way they could get max potential from the Grendel is if they adopted a Bullpup platform. We all know that’s not going to happen.
