Has anyone tried one of these Combo kits for the 527? There are two are listed in .264 LBC-AR and 6.5 SAOD (Grendel?).

The 6.5 SAOD Chamber isn't a SAAMI chamber. Haven't seen anyone's reports on them yet that I can remember, but they use LW pipes.

Do you know how it differs from their .264 LBC-AR barrel?
Looks like a heavy contour pipe that threads into a CZ527 receiver. The tighter neck dimensions of the LBC variant chamber they use probably isn't a big deal in a bolt gun. I would get the chamber reamed with more leade in a bolt gun anyway if I could mag-feed it. No problem in running the pressures at 58,000+ psi with the bolt gun. That combined with the 130gr+ class bullets is really close to .260 Rem performance.
I dont have the kit, but I do have a LW barrel on my 527. When new it shot <.5 moa, it's still under .8 moa.
