This is really cool!
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - VASCAR2 - 04-08-2021
Really good looking Vepr. Which barrel length is yours? Eagerly awaiting your range report.
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 04-20-2021
was less than fair. double checked scope mount and various other things
at 50 yd got 3 inch groups so no well at all
[ATTACH=CONFIG]17780[/ATTACH]
barrel is 18 inch
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - Nephilim7 - 04-20-2021
What ammo?
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 05-10-2021
between Hornady 123 gr a-max
when I saw result i switched to wolf 100 gr with same results
this past weekend range trip......
again at 50 yd
scope and mount seem nice and tight just like on my other rifles
combloc russian barrel should be better at 50 yd
maybe groups will tighten up after 500 rd?? (thats a lot of $$)
3 inch group at 50 yd
saiga 223 at 100 yd is max 2-3 inches

So in other words, its shooting as sloppy as most AKs do.

Spray n pray
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 05-11-2021
well, in all fairness I would expect a 762x39 with irons to shoot like this off a bench. add a decent optic and get it out to 100 ok
My Saiga223 shoots a ton more accurate. disappointing to say the least.
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - HuntTXhogs - 05-11-2021
Ive been through builds like this , for that reason i shoot them stock until I find one with potential and then build it out .
Sorry it isnt grouping well for ya
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 05-11-2021
yea prol should have don't that but optic mounts availability sucks. one more range trip after I cleaned the barrel good and possibly swap scopes
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - VASCAR2 - 05-11-2021
Id probably try shooting your Vepr with iron sights. I could shoot my Mini 14 with iron sights as well or better than Minis with an optic.
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 05-19-2021
Ill give irons a try. Looks combat precision is what Im left with. Really need to stretch to 100 yd

I wonder if your Vepr 6.5/Grendel is way over gassed which might produce more barrel whip just like with the Mini 14/30. There are adjustable gas pistons for Aks but Ive never used them. Id also look at the barrel crown.

The barrel is crowned as the smith has done for all my ak. i removed the brake with no change as well. The gassing would be something to look into. kns makes a fine adjustable piston. will post with more....

What am I looking at? Looks like 5 in the bullseye and 2 in right field? That's is an improvement!
Vepr in 6.5 grendel - TexasSlinger - 10-06-2021
yes 3 bullseyes , 2 to the right. Still curious on those 2 flyers Wondering ammo, rifle, me, scope. I would guess me.
