WoW what an extensive amount of contributions he's already added to our shooting industry. I certainly thank him and wish him great success in his new endeavors in the defense industry.

An engineer of his caliber (heh
) will be a fantastic asset to wherever he ends up.Best wishes, Bill, and Godspeed!

Very curious where he is going!
Guy contributed alot... Very grateful for his work..

WHAT? I spent years helping him promote the Grrr. I feel somewhat abandoned right now....
Well, I guess I'll spend more time on a few other pet project promotions. 6.5 Grrr AR lite Max, The 4000 fps Grrr based dart, etc. Unreal.....wow...
My guess is that the .338 Lapua, is more interesting than the 50 bmg ? Military contracts pay well from OUR USA born citizen Tax Dollars...
Not happy here in Mn.
Bill A should hop in for an explanation or 2.

Sneaky, 6.5 Grendel is fully established and has a life of its own. It's all grown up and has left the house and has even gotten married and had kids!
Even if Bill A. goes somewhere, the 6.5 Grendel is here to stay.

Here's hoping that Bill will still check in once in a while & drop some wisdom on the unwashed.

Bill A + Defense Industry = 6.5 for Military... Is my math wrong???
Bill Alexander leaving AA - biodsl - 07-22-2017
The Grendel was really what got me into rifles (as a LEO I spent most of my time around handguns and shotguns). My first AR was a Grendel, my first set of loading dies? Grendel. Thank you Bill!

Grendel is all growed up. Time to move on to the next challenge!

Thank you Bill. Your legacy will live forever.

Much thanks to Bill's hard work and determination. Used to be 1 grendel at the cabin during deer season. Mine! Now there are 5 other people with their own. Onward and upward Mr. Alexander!!
Bill Alexander leaving AA - sneaky one - 07-23-2017
I still feel a bit abandoned here. I will push forward on the AR Grrr Max lite then. We'll see...
I asked Bill for an explanation of current events, for the Horde here.

Thank you Bill for the Grendel!

Thank you everyone.
I owe a debt of gratitude to all of you, those who write on this forum and the many customers who don't for making the Grendel what it is today. You all built it.
Shall be checking in as much as possible and may actually be able to post a little more frequently.
Bill Alexander leaving AA - sneaky one - 07-26-2017
Awesome news! Bill A will be staying on our beloved forum. Thank you Bill!

Already been done!! The upper cost 3 grand, but its available. Uses a JP enterprises heat sink on the barrel to keep the thing from melting after 100 rounds.
