HI

I wanted to stop in and introduce myself.

I live in Austin TX and have a custom class 3 gunsmithing business. I got into the 6.5 Grendel round a couple months ago. I have taken lots of wild pigs with it and so far haven’t shot one factory load threw her; I have to say I love the caliber and the damage that it does on pigs is nice.

Welcome....

What barrel length and load are you using to do "damage" to hogs?

Everyone here likes pictures Smile

Howdy from Leander! I need to look you up so we can talk Grendel and other gun projects. I'm looking for different gunsmith than the one I've been using.

Do you ever make it out to the BOTW range?


HI from Texas - txgunner00 - 04-30-2011

Just checked your website and saw you are doing 300 blackout barrels. We definitely need to talk.

Welcome, Brad! Texans get all the fun! Makes me wish Minnesota here was overrun with wild hogs! Well, at least we got lots of liberals and other varmints. . . . Wink

Great looking rig. Love seeing the Grendel put to good use harvesting a hog. Good eatin! Ive mixed a hog with deer meat before for its blend of fat and it was great.

You look familiar. Wink

Another welcome from Georgetown. I'm content with the Grendel for now so I'll be bothering you about my 6.8!

txgunner - I'm out at BOTW at least once a month. GREAT place

I'm also in Austin. It's great to see several Austin-area Grendel aficionados here.

Welcome to the Forum. I'm down in Clear Lake. Looks like you have some nice offerings from looking at your website. Let me know if you ever get over to Houston for any gun shows.
