Grendel Bolt Action Advice - hm2 clark - 07-28-2011

I no longer hav the exact figures on the cost of the Grendel 700 remington. But it started life as a .223 from wallyworld and just sat in the safe for the longest time; surplus to needs. then one day stockys had a sale of kevlar stocks so I bought one. I already had a spare timney trigger and a bigger barrel band laying around. AT that point I think I spent 6-7 hundred dollars on a barrel bolt and assembly gun coating bedding ect . As memory serves it only took about 6 weeks to build.

I found a Ruger 77 Mk II action chambered for the 7.62x39, replaced the barrel with a 6.5 Grendel from Pac-Nor, added a rifleBasix trigger and a Hogue overmolded stock.
Bedded and pillared, this rifle shoots and handles very well.
