BHW hits it out of the park again. Black Friday 16 inch .264 LBC.

Gents,


I wanted a barrel for a light weight build, BHW had a sale. They had a special on a 16 inch medium contour 1:9 .264 LBC on sale for $245 shipped. I used a AeroPrecision M4E1 upper and a 15 inch Key mod free float hand guard. A 7.62x39 bolt, Bushmaster bolt carrier.
The upper is topped with a 1.5x5x30 Falcon Menace scope with a L20 reticle. It is mounted in a S.A.L.T mount from SWFA. I took it all to the range today, and it shot outstanding. 5 shot .64 on paper, then started hitting the silhouettes at 200-600 yards. The steel ranged from 24 inch swingers, to 5 inchers at 600 yards.
The virtues of the 6.5 Grendel cannot be overstated or over praised. This is the most fun I have ever had shooting in my 35 years of shooting. I 3 rifles built, and my enthusiasm for the cartridge only continues to grow. A2

a .64 5shot is definitely gtg. i'm a full convert to the fantastic Grendel, too. can't ask any more from the AR15 platform. wish we'd had it back in the day.

Very NICE! Love me some BHW... Best three shot group with my 18" standard contour 1:9 was .25...
