You need to have kids that are smarter than you to hold your hand when you get on any kind of computer like my kids do for me.
Sounds like your going to have a great Grendel build. I hope you can find a way to post some pictures.

Took it out to day. Had some cycling problems at first. Kept locking at first and had to keep yanking the charging handle for the first 25 rounds. after that it freed up and did great. all the case mouths have a dent in them . case must be striking something on ejecting. But at 200 yards 5 shot group 4 more or less in the same hole . Used the Hornady 123 gr A-MAX Match

That looks nice.
There are two ways to get rid of the dented cases. You can search for (or someone can link you to) a way to tune your ejector to get rid of it, or you can just put a self adhesive square piece of fuzzy sided velcro on your brass deflector. I use the fuzzy velcro on all of mine (many others do too), and it works perfectly. Easy peasy and no more dents.

I want to thank the Grendel forum and all it's members for their tips and advice. Now as you can see I still have some things to do. I used the Viper PST 4-16 off my 223 for my day at the range. 4-1/2 MOA elevation and dead on at200yards. But this is not the scope I want on my 6.5 . I am looking at three different one's . the Vortex razor HD jen II 4.5-27 the Knight force but I heard thy have had some problem's are the Tryjucon 5-20. For a stand I am looking at the GG@G

What issues are you hearing about nightforce? I am very close to pulling the trigger on one myself.
