Grendelhunter Upper

[Smitty79]

Hi all, sorry I haven't been able to get back to you about how my Grendelhunter Upper performs. Haven't had time to shoot it till today between work and North Dakota weather. Short on time today, so I only ran 20 rounds of Hornady Black through it, but it functioned as it should, and accuracy seems promising. The four shot group was the last 4 rounds, prone from a bipod. Brass ejected at about 4 o' clock in a nice little pile 3 feet away. However, all the brass is slightly dented at the case mouth. Over gassed? The only other issue I had was the bolt occasionally not locking back on an empty magazine, but I've had that problem before with the Troy mag release.

Good to know, thank you. I'm not set up to reload yet, but hopefully after the new year I can start.

What Upper did you get?

[Smitty79]

It's the 22" fluted upper with 15" keymod rail. He now has the option to get a black nitrided version, which I'd prefer, but I'm happy. I can always paint it later if I want.

Just wanted to let you know that RCBS and Hornady both have amazing rebates that expire at the end of the year. I took advantage of the "spend $300, get $100 gift card" from RCBS and am getting 100 free 40cal Hornady bullets for spending $32 on a die set.

I was planning to wait to buy my reloading equipment until January but the rebates got my money now.

If you're shooting off of ICE and can shoot that group, I'd say that's a shooter...

That's awesome, thank you. I have a buddy with a complete reloading set up he will sell me, but I'm sure ill need dies and a few other miscellaneous things.

Haha thanks. It was also only 20 degrees that day, so I was dealing with cold hands and a runny nose. It will be nice once weather warms up so I can have a full day to really see how it shoots.
