Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - alicea8541 - 02-29-2016 I decided to make a lighter, smaller, cheaper (than my other one) Grendel for hunting in eastern NC. Waiting on scope and mount and then it's time to send some rounds down range. -Spikes Tactical matched receivers in FDE -Alexander Arms 16" Lite barrel and bolt -Spikes BCG -CMC 3.5lb single stage trigger -YHM smooth free float hand guard Cerakote to match receivers -YHM DI parts -Bravo Company large latch CH -B5 Bravo stock -Magpul MOE+ grip -LBE buffer assembly -Spikes ejection port cover Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - 65Whelen - 02-29-2016 Nicely done, what scope set-up are going to do? Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - customcutter - 03-01-2016 Nice! I'm building a lightweight also. Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - alicea8541 - 03-01-2016 Will be making a final decision later in the year but until then I'm testing/reviewing scopes from Athlon. http://athlonoptics.com/product-category/riflescopes/ Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - Bill257 - 03-02-2016 Nice build. The YHM smooth handguard is easy on the hands. Be sure and post your thoughts on the Athlon scope. They look interesting, but little info out there from actual users. Whoops, I Did It Again!!! - alicea8541 - 03-04-2016 From the stuff I saw at SHOT Show, they are definitely going after Vortex's current stranglehold of the scope market.
