LMT makes an enhanced bolt carrier with altered cam timing (if I described it wrong please correct, ) to help with full auto and SBR rifles. Would this be of use in a Grendel? Does anyone currently use this bolt carrier?

I'd say it would depend on if your Grendel is over gassed, if so it might help. But maybe LRR might be in and he or another member with more b knowledge than I might know

seemed to me those carriers were for cans on 5.56-- ??? the standard m-16 carrier is generally fine for the m-16/m-4 don't need an enhanced carrier ??

the grendel runs perfectly well with a standard m-16 style carrier with th correct depth bolt. -- so i wouldn't try fixing something that ain't broke.

I didn't say anything was broken.

I would think this may be helpful if you have a short-for-barrel gas system, such as MLGS with a 18" or 20" especially if you were dead-set against using adjustable gas.

I'd say adjustable gas is a better solution, but that's just my .02
