FLshooter Wrote:A good friend of mine got a Ruger American predator and 64.5 Grendel from Grab a Gun. It cost him $430 total including FFL transfer .
I went with him to the range today to shoot it.His 10rd And 20 rd AR 6.5 Grendel mags fit. And it shot pretty good groups with Hornaday ELDM handloads .
I got to shoot it and I actually liked it .But if I ever got one the trigger and the stock would have to go, the stock is horrible ,it feels cheap.Trigger is gritty and has a long pull.
It?s a Ruger so I?m sure there are aftermarket barrels and triggers already out there . But has anyone changed out the stock ?If so,who makes one?
I?m probably not going to rush out and buy one of these. I?m not ready for another project . But still I would like to know my options .
By the way,in case you are wondering,he put a 4-16x50 Vortex Diamondback scope on it.Which,would not have been my choice.But,it worked.
Tell him to read the directions and adjust the trigger. They can be adjusted down pretty light and crisp with virtually no pre-travel ... at least all three that I have right now adjusted down just fine.
Waiting on a Grendel Predator swap from Grabagun right now. Went to pick it up Tuesday after work and a 2.5-3" section of the barrel just in front of the receiver had been scraped down to the bare metal. I rejected the transfer and they are going to send another one.
