    Checking in From Corpus Christi, TX

    Hello,

    I have been a long time fan of ARP 6.8 barrels and decided to give my first Grendel based cartridge a try and picked up a ARP 20" 6mm Predator barrel.

    With that being said, I am looking forward to learning about the Grendel and working up some accurate loads.

    Cheers!

      Welcome sir!!! I've long been thinking about trying a 6mm Grendel variant. Tell us more about your build!

        Sawacs, welcome to the CLan! When I was a kid ( early 60's ) I spent 2 full summers in Corpus. One of my favorite towns. Walked over the channel bridge there. It MOVES! A LOT! This is the best place around to learn about Grendel things ( and pretty much AR's in general ).

            Thanks for the welcome!

            Regarding Harvey, we were very very lucky. In fact, if we were 18 miles farther north, things would have been really bad!

            Here are the build specs:

            ARP 20" 6mm Predator barrel
            ARP/Hornady custom Predator dies
            Hornday 6.5 Grendel brass
            ARP Grendel bolt
            Young chrome bolt carrier
            SLR Sentry 7 adjustable gas block
            SLR 16.5" SOLO Ultralite rail
            SLR billet receiver set
            CMC 2/3 2-stage trigger
            Larue SPR 1.5 quick detach scope mount
            Vortex GenII PST 3x15-44 or NXS 3x15-50 (undecided)
            AAC SDN-6 51T flash hider
            Trued receiver face

            Cheers!
