.135" vs .136" bolts.... - CastorTroy - 04-07-2015

Some places advertise Grendel bolts with a .135" boltface, others with a .136". Are they functionally interchangeable?

This is just my thoughts but I think that a thousands of an inch is within the manufacturing tolerance spec for a bolt but I could be mistaken. I am sure someone that knows for a fact will chime in.

Yep, .135 and .136 are interchangeable. I'm pretty sure that's within spec. I have multiple bolts that measure each. They are good to go with the SAAMI Grendel chamber.
