Hello Folks!
My first post. Last year I built my first AR15 in 5.56. I didn't skimp on quality parts as I invested over $2,400.00 before glass. Recently I have discovered the beauty of the 6.5 Grendel round. I am starting to spec out parts for my 6.5 Grendel upper build. This upper will sit on my nicely broken in AR15 lower. The primary use for this upper will be for competition. My range offers competitions out to 500 yards. I am looking for advice on the best barrel twist and length for 600 yard target shooting. I will be using a scope and shooting from several positions: prone, sitting and standing. Any opinions on barrel manufacturers are also appreciated. I am very pleased with my current 5.56 Wilson Combat 416R SS, 18", 1/8 twist barrel. Thank You in advance for replies!
