My 6.5 Grendel Hunting Rifle Build
#1
I have been purchasing parts for a little over a year now and have finally received my last parts over the holidays. It is finally assembled. This rifle will be used for hunting whitetail deer, hogs, and predators. Haven't had time to go out and send some rounds downrange. Will have to update this thread after I do that. The hydro dipping was performed by a local company (Liquid Concepts) in True Timber Kanati with a cerakote base coat before the dipping was performed. The barrel was also cerakoted in black by them as well.

Here are the specs on the rifle.
