    6.5 Grendel

    Have to add my experience with 123SST’s as a component, not as factory ammo. With my preferred AR Comp load in an 18” JP barrel and a 3x or 5x prism-not the ideal tool for shooting groups-am consistently between .8-1.0” at 100yds. Lots of history on the bullet’s effectiveness on game, though...

    Beam scale… am I out of my mind?

    If you do decide to go beam, only one worth your consideration is a Parker tuned scale. I throw charge and trickle up on scale to right near the kernel-about 20 seconds for the whole process and my SD’s are very consistently under 10, often better, but there’s a lot of prep behind good numbers.

    Big Magnum Revolver, what is just right?

    One other issue I had with Casull was that it was short throated. Perhaps that’s been resolved more recently. To get any cast bullet with any more than a minimal front shoulder band to chamber properly, you’d have to deep seat and apply a heavy crimp on that band. Think NEI 310 Keith style...

    Big Magnum Revolver, what is just right?

    Have owned my full share of magnum revolvers over 50+ years, poured mountains of heavy for caliber cast bullets through them, and now have enough issue with arthritis in wrist that it’s not quite the fun it used to be. Read Ross Seyfried’s work with 45 Colt and commissioned John Linebaugh to...

    10yr Review of 17.6” Lilja 6.5 Grendel

    LR-Have followed your work, council and guidance for the last 10+ years over on Grendel forum and more recently here, and will give you either credit/blame for a collection of Grendels that I try to keep in active rotation year round. Solid advice, willingly given and well appreciated. Haven’t...

    6.5 Grendel

    Might want to add the 130gr Berger OTM Tactical to the list. Have 200 to play with between Grendel, x47 and CM. Lots of positive feedback from the field on same.

    6.5 Grendel

    Towhead-While all of the heavy for Grendel bullets you’ve noted above might be ‘potentially’ suitable for a bolt action Grendel-and that’s a stretch, they’re all secant shapes and will be long for their weight and miles from the lands in most chambers. That, and you’ll have used most of your...

    ambi bolt on non ambi lower

    You’ll need to select a high profile handguard for the Maten. I prefer SLR for my own and those I’ve built for others. Easy to mount, very solid and no interference between gas tube and barrel nut alignment. Have migrated newer builds to mlok as well.

    Aadland Engineering Still in business?

    I run Aadland caps on almost everything I have. Running a one man show is not just a piece of cake, when you’re trying to respond to customers that are used to immediate gratification. You’re trying to balance total orders by SKU, and attempting to minimize machine/printer setup time-one...
