i've been lurking and learning on this site since, what, January? anyway, the result was that i ordered my upgraded Grendel Entry from AA last week, and realize that i am in for a wait. considering all that Bill A. has done for this cartridge, AA deserves the Grendel business and i'll gladly wait it out.
in the meantime, i have a Remy 700 BDL 6mm, bedded, floated, and lapped, that used to shoot .5 MOA. however, that was almost 20 years ago, and the barrel has suffered enough to call it quits.
i'm very interested in the 6.5 Creedmoor as my new bolt gun and am wondering what complications i may be looking at.
any highly recommended manufacturers that will make a good Remy 700 6.5 Creedmoor barrel?
also, will i be able to keep my original 6mm Rem bolt for the Creedmoor?
i'd like to work up loads and get the Creedmoor running while i await my Grendel. any help here will be appreciated.
