What 6.5 Grendel Magazines Are Best?

[Two Tone]

I guess I better get off my behind and order up some mags for my hunting builds.

What mags are best?

Will be Wilson Combat barrels and bolts and Anderson lowers, if that matters.

Cpd/duramags

[StoneHendge]

I use duramags for competition

[tlen]

17 round E-Lander Magazines work for me.

[Two Tone]

What about ASC brand?

[biodsl]

TT...I've used ASC 5 and 10 round mags extensively. They work fine. I can't speak to the larger capacity mags. I'd recommended loading any new mag to capacity and letting them sit for 3 to 6 weeks to break the spring in a little bit.

[Zeneffect]

I use ASC 10 and 15 rounders. No complaints, let's me run as long as 2.3"

If I'm single feeding the 6mm Bob sled works good.

Cpd/duramags

By "Cpd" do you mean "C Products"?

Are these standard capacity---26 rounders?

[fmyellowj]

I use the 25 round ASC magazines, I haven't had an issue with any of the fourteen I own. I wish Magpul made a polymer Grendel mag, but I understand the cartridge is a little too thick for a polymer magazine body.

No.

C products and cpd/duramags are two diffrent companys.

I dont think products is in buisness any more.

Yes 26 rounds is standard capacity for the grendel. There is no 30 round grendel mag available for the ar15 platform.

Thanks.

I know the Grendel case is bigger than the 5.56 case so it makes sense the mags wouldn't hold as many.

E-Landers have not ever given me any problems ever.

[muvef]

I prefer the ASC 15 rd magazines. Never a issue.

My 17 rd E-Lander and 5/10 rd C Products needed to be modified. The case mouth was getting caught, but a Dremel fixed all of them.

Any magazine you get just check it by pushing a few rounds out and see if the case mouth makes contact with the magazine body.

CPD stands for C Products Defense.

[Double Naught Spy]

I am not a fan of ASC mags. After posting this video, I have had reports of the problem with other mag brands, but the issue seems less frequent than with ASC. I own about 15 ASC mags, BTW.

I bought 4 Elanders. I had a problem with them binding and hence failing to feed.

All of these are the 24-26 round mags, not 10 or 15 round mags.

CPD stands for C Products Defense.

Cpd and c-products are two diffrent companys.

C-products went out of buisness and was bought up and became CPD.

Could care less what the letters stand for.

That's what happens whenever a company is acquired by investors. You are technically correct, but your statement is misleading. In corporate legal jargon, CPD is the successor to C Products Defense.

[Bonas]

I have some mags marked "DURAMAG" and "C Products Defense" on the floorplate and others just marked "C Products Defense." None are marked CPD. They're the same mag regardless of markings, and I like them much better than my E-Landers.

[rickt300]

Has anyone tried the 7.62x39 mags made for the AR running Grendel ammo through them?

[Two Tone]

Thank you so much guys, I was hoping for good answers to this question. Now to buy up some Duramag / CPD magazines.
