    18" barrel mid-length vs rifle length gas system

    Re: 18" barrel mid-length vs rifle length gas system Zinn My 18"6.5 Grendel has a mid-length gas system. I used a JP low profile adjustable gas block and it fits under their rifle length handguard nicely. The adjustable gas block will take care of any potential overgassing problems.

    What is wrong with the 6.5mm Rem Mag?

    Re: What is wrong with the 6.5mm Rem Mag? Remy There is nothing wrong with the 6.5 Rem Mag. Originally it was introduced in the Model 600 carbine with a short action 18.5" barrel. Between the short barrel and the need to seat the bullets deeply in the case it could not reach its full...

    Re: Range Cards Jake Here is another one that I use http://www.biggameinfo.com/BalCalc.aspx I copy and paste to Excel and remove any columns I don't need. I don't think it is as capable as JBM but can be made more compact.

    6mm and 6.5mm AR-15s.

    Re: 6mm and 6.5mm AR-15s. The 6.5 BRX looks interesting, I am wondering what you are going to use for a bolt? The Grendel bolt is as open as you can get witout compromising the locking lugs. I guess you could use the 30 RAR bolt, carrier and barrel extension if they are available. You will...

    Stainless Steel Media Testimonials

You can do a search on the internet and find a lot of SS media, but one site had it for $50 a lb with a 50...
