Hi, new to the 6.5g, but not to ARs and firearms in general.
Got my 1st Colt HBAR in the 80s, and been loving them ever since.
I generally build my own stuff now, including a recent Blackout build.
My shooting buddies wanna go long range (1000 yard range just opened up near us)
and one of them just bought a nice RPR in 6.5 Creedmore and the other has a nice .308.
I can't afford the RPR and figure the cheapest way for me to join them is with a 24" Grendel upper.
I've got a 24" target crowned Bartlein barrel on order from Precision Firearms, as well as a Viper PST Gen 2 5-25x50. Unfortunately both are back ordered for at least a couple months.
The lower I'm going to put it on is already built for long range, with a PRS stock and a SSA-E trigger.
Haven't decided on an upper yet, learning towards the slickside Mega billet one.
Gonna be starting out with the 123g Hornady ELD factory ammo, and then I'll eventually add a set of dies to my current reloading collection and start rolling my own. I'm glad to see CFE223 works well; I've got tons on hand!
This forum has been great so far; I've learned alot by searching out relevant topics and reading the threads - nice to be here!
