Diesel-
Where do you shoot? I'm just a bit west of town and shoot most weekends at the Bandera Gun Club which is only a mile from my house. You ought to swing up some time and we might compare notes. Nice stick, by the way.

I have my own range at my parents place in Pleasanton so I really don't go to any ranges to shoot although I have one 3 miles from my house. Yes we should meet up and compare notes it would be great to meet a fellow GRENDEL shooter.

Well had a slight hiccup with the first time shooting. I could not get the bolt to eject the round after firing. I thought it was the adjustable gas block but it did not change anything. Fired a few rounds and called it quiets. Got home last night tore it down and found out the problem was the bolt, the company I ordered from is sending me a new one, called today and they were a few days out so maybe next weekend I will be able to try it again. The few rounds I did get off all I can say is this thing is FREAKIN AWSOME.

Very nice looking rifle. I hope you get your bolt issue squared away, and get that baby back online.

Now that is a Bad A** rig..........How do you like that Sightmark scope ? I have one in a 1X6X24 with a 30 mm tube, circle dot lighted reticle, on my 300 BLK.....works for me...

Thanks man I really like the way it turned out. The sightmark scope is awesome for a mid $200.00 scope, I picked it up at the gun show last weekend for $180.00 NIB so I couldn't pass it up. The glass is really clear, I had it set up right next to my brothers leupold ar and really could not tell the differance. I really didn't get to mess with it to much because of the problem with the bolt.

Thanks, ya it's kinda like having a brand new truck with no motor. Hopefully maybe next weekend I will get to shoot it.
