Here's my new Grendel - MichaelK - 07-19-2011 A little while ago I made my first post about buying the parts to build a Grendel AR. I ordered a 6.5 mm kit from J&T Distributing, and received it in the mail about 10 days later. Took about 2 hours to get the full rifle totally assembled. Then I ordered a Simmon's Whitetail scope to put on top. Here it is! Didn't get to try it out right away, but finally got out to the range for the initial sight-in. Here's the group I produced on just the first box of ammo. I think I can do even better if I replace the stock trigger with something smoother and lighter. It was pretty heavy and could feel the creep, but managed to make a .795" group even with that. I am very, very happy! Will start developing a handload for it shortly. Here's my new Grendel - Whelenon - 07-19-2011 Don't ya love it when a plan comes together. Very clean looking rifle, I like it. Is that a 24" barrel? Here's my new Grendel - RStewart - 07-19-2011 Nice looking rig! Here's my new Grendel - z06man - 07-19-2011 Nice rifle and nice group. Here's my new Grendel - smoke13 - 07-21-2011 Your Grendel looks similar to the one I'm building. As soon as I add a side charge BC, muzzle break, and scope, I'm off to the range.
