First time out with the new Grendel since I put it together. 18" BCA upper. Vortex Viper HS 4-16x44mm scope. I had 50 rounds of Federal American Eagle 90gr TNT HP.
Got it sighted in at 50 yards with 3 rounds. Had cycling issues that I traced to having too heavy of a buffer. I switched the upper over to my 223 Wylde lower and the problems went away immediately. First shot at 100 yards....BULLSEYE! Shot MOA or less groups from there. Amazing! Right out of the gate this baby is on the money! Only a total of about 30 rounds fired today. This rifle and this caliber are outstanding. Recoil is so sweet with this round. Just a nice push to let you know it means business! Going to order some brass, powder, and bullets then get down to business. Thanks for everyone's help and all the vast knowledge here on this forum.
