This is why I asked I tryed the old Google fuu and came up empty just wanted to see if Bill or anybody had done any research on this topic.
What got me think about it was I remembered a jam or two I had while either slow riding the bolt closed or somehow the charging handle got snaged for a sec on something.
The resulting jam had the bullet squarely in both edges of the ramp it was going in on.
So I'm sitting here thinking since we are useing 6.5 mm bullets instead of 223/556 bullets could the grendel due with a lil less material in the middle of the extentions feed ramps.
To me it seems to make sense but that's just me and my thinking.
Not planning on doing anything like that was just wondering if anyone had done thinking on that idea.
And yes my rifles run fine, just need to get to polishing the ramps.
