So long as it is properly marked as a variant, is well executed, and functions with any SAAMI spec ammo, I fail to see how a variant chamber is a problem. Some will be better than others, but the ones that don't work well will die off eventually. This reminds me of the 1911 arguments over external extractors, beavertails, ramped barrels, etc. Just because it's not the original design doesn't automatically make it inferior. I think each chamber should stand or fall based on its merits, not a dogmatic loyalty to the "real grendel."
