OTIS has their ripcord cleaning cables on sale buy one get one. I just bought 4 for 35 shipped.

https://otistec.com/

If you've never used one of these, they're perfect for range cleaning. Few inches of wet with CLP, pull through, and done. Really easy, it does the right amount of maintenance, and allows compact storage too.

I know it's not Grendel specific, but they're usually 17-19.99 at the store locally, so there's that. I basically paid 9 bucks each.

Side note, the pistol versions are great too.

I use a 6.5 creedmor ripcord, no need for a grendel specific one. I have a 9mm boresnake, but have ripcords for everything I clean.

Hollis Wrote:Thanks, Lemonaid. From what I read from the forum here, it appears this is Wolf repackaged. Is that correct or did I miss something?

I recently got a bunch of Wolf for a good price with shipping at AimPlus for cheaper and low shipping cost, so I'm good for now, but I'll keep this in mind if needed in the future. I get some pretty serious flyers with the Wolf, but it is useful for some shots and a heck of a lot cheaper than anything else I can find (before this).

Let me know how it does for you once you try it out!

This is the worst ammo EVA! 8.69 inches for 10 rounds.
Velocity 2343, 2700, 2246, 2282, 2253, 2692, 2700, 2679, 2652, 2692

100 yards, sunny, no wind, 78 degrees. First 10 rounds out of clean 24 inch barrel.

It's steel case fmj plinking ammo. It's not meant to be match are sub moa ammo from any barrel.

So why buy it and then complain about the groups? You want better buy better are load better.

Oh and just so this ties back in to the spirit of the thread. Ammoseek showing some nice prices today for the wolf and Barnaul fmj grendel ammo.

Just incase anyone needs some for what it was designed for.

Not a complaint, just a statement of fact. I was responding to a request to share my results, which were horrible.

My bad thought it said 399 in the email alert I got.

Alexander Arms has 20% off their 22" & 24" barrels that are threaded for 9/16 muzzle devices, plus a free WCI muzzle brake.
Also 50% off their 9/16 brakes if you don't want a barrel.
https://www.shopalexanderarms.com/Products-FTXSale.html

I'm tempted to pick up a Brake, but the $15 shipping takes it just out of impulse-buy territory.

Wow they must have been listening. They have never offered those length barrels for sale before.

I'm trying to think of a reason to get a 22 inch right now.

2019 6.5 Grendel Deals - Six5x39 - 08-21-2019

not sure if its good deal , but just seen powder valley have sales on bullets .


2019 6.5 Grendel Deals - Former Cav - 08-21-2019

I bought a bear creek arsenal 18 inch upper with 1 in 8 twist barrel. I put Mag pul MBUS PRO sights on it, Shot some black label hornaday 123 grain bullets (about a buck a round) and they are basically 1 inch at 100 yards. the upper cost about 190 bucks. the sights were around 100 bucks. I have a Larue 17 round magazine, a C products 10 rounder and 26 rounder. They were about 20 bucks each.
I've been working up loads using 8208, Varget, and BL-C2 so far with the 120 ELD hornaday bullets. Got one load that is 1 inch.
Next up is test loads for 123 SST bullets using AR comp powder.
I hope to get a good group of about 1/2 inch. I am used to 1/2 inch or LESS as I used to shoot prairie dogs.
this is my first experience with the Grendel round.
I have a target grade Rock River rifle that I am using the lower with this upper. It has a timney trigger.
