Welcome to the clan, RL, from the great nation of Texas! Tell us of your goals, plans and what you've built/bought. Maybe throw in a pix or two.

I will post some pics later. I have not even built a Grendel yet. I built the lower that my current Grendel upper sits on, but not a Grendel. I am looking to build one this spring. My current Grendel upper is a Radical Arms 20" uppers (I know that Radical is not well liked). I got it to shoot Wolf ammo while I built my AR.308. Shoots Wolf pretty decent 1.5-2MOA. I have built a dozen other 5.56 and 7.62x39 AR carbines, rifles and pistols. I like the 7.62x39 very much for an intermediate round.
I have been looking at Grendel barrels from Criterion, but would be open to suggestions.
Thanks

Lilja
I'm bias though, I sell quite a few Lilja barrels. I have a 16" Criterion build that is essentially a duplicate of one of my 16" Lilja guns and they're both very good. The Criterion is a little heavier, the Lilja chronos a little faster. They both shoot bug holes.

Welcome in RL. You and rebby and I live in the Blaine area. After this stay at home thing is over..... we can meet up at Wild Bills saloon for burger and a brew?
You can send me a private message to chat if you want.
Welcome to Rebby also- I have been off the forum for months due to - too many issues at same time. Life, and mother nature can wreak havoc upon us.
BFT and I sometimes shoot at Bills shooting range in Lino Lakes area.
