I've been really busy and attention focused on other things so have not been on Grendel forum in a lot longer than I thought. Finally gathered everything together and went to friends ranch along with my wife and adjusted the gas block and shot the rifle. Off the hood of my truck with a 3x9 leopold scope, after a few shots to set gas block, was able to shoot 5/8-3/4 inch groups with ease. Factory Hornady 123 SST. Wife shot gun and informed me she was using it this deer season. Recoil is so light I think it is probably less than a 5.56. I am so pleased that it worked out so well. I followed the suggestions given me and have a rifle that worked first time I fired it. Thanks guys for all of the suggestions and help!!! I guess if I want to use my rifle I am going to have to build my wife one also. Looking real hard at the forged Precision Firearms upper and lower with a Blackhole barrel. Anyone have comments on them? Best day I have had in a long time. John
