When I got into the Grendel a year ago I went through the same confusion. Seems different manufacturers want to do the Grendel different ways. I made the decision to stick with the SAAMI spec chamber with .136" bolt. You need to be careful when reading barrel descriptions. Sometimes it's not clear what you're getting.Cliff

Other than being careful about getting the right bolt I'm not sure any other "downsides" have been really clear to me...Last edited by zcostilla; 12-13-2017, 07:35 PM.-Zac
