Thanks,
I appreciate the rifle more that it is a custom build rather than a product of a factory. Dont get me wrong I think ones from the factory can work and great, it just feels more nostalgic that I put it all together and is works great.

Nothing beats making a rifle your own or putting one together yourself.

Congrats you have a Grendel you know inside and out. Be careful though, they tend to multiply. I got one then 2 now think I will get another one for the trifecta.

I like it a lot better than my 5.56 for sure. After replacing the bolt and modifying the mags I have more confidence in it naw. just picked up the scope gotta have a lil more time getting it right. I think I need a different barrel for the rifling goes into the leade area of the chamber where the neck and shoulder are. Looking @ possibly getting a Faxon Barrel for, everytime I contact them they are willing to help. unlike; Satern; I don't like that company at all. I hit nothing but, a brick wall everytime I contacted them about their problems with their parts.
