        hey are there any deals on the reloading books? I never go around to buying them. Aren't there a couple edits that need to be made in one of them?

          This is a one unit offering to help getting someone started with the main things they need for 6.5 Grendel. If upper receiver assembly is needed, I can do that too for you.

          The minor edits for Volume I are included with it in a cover insert. This covers the discussion between 14.5" and 18" velocities in the Hunting Reach Chapter (Ch 6). Volume I has industry load data from AA, Hodgon's, Lapua/VV, Accurate, and Ramshot powders. It also covers the AR15 gas system for those that might not be familiar with it.

          Volume II goes into great detail on hunting with the 6.5 Grendel. Chapters include:

          Section 1. The Rifle

          Chapter 1. Commercial Rifles and Ammunition
          Chapter 2. Sights for Hunting
          Chapter 3. Barrel Length: Handling vs. Velocity
          Chapter 4: Muzzle Devices

          Section 2. Game Harvesting Bullets

          Chapter 5. Hunting Bullets
          Chapter 6. Terminal Ballistics (This is where Rickoshay's extensive Perma Gel testing was done and documented with many hunting bullets.)
          Chapter 7. Why is the 6.5 a Good Caliber?

          Section 3. Hunting Loads

          Chapter 8. Why do we Reload for Hunting?
          Chapter 9. Reloading Guidelines (This is a very detailed explanation of component selection specifically for the 6.5 Grendel in the AR15, die set-up, and the whole process from brass prep through bullet seating.)
          Chapter 10. Load Data (This section has 14 pages presented in log book format, with bullet weights ranging from 85gr-156gr.)

            Is this the only barrel you'll offer in this package deal? After I get done with my 12.5" Grendel, I'm wanting a 18" Grendel too.
            12.5" SBR Grendel - Need Barrel
            Surge - Rugged Suppressor
            Been a fan of the Grendel from the very beginning and haven't second guessed that choice one time.

            Aim small, miss small!

              I'm looking at other barrels as well. I have 18" Grendel barrels coming out of my ears for some reason, all but one of them are new.

              This one will need some way to choke the gas, as it has a .094" port diameter on a MLGS with 8 3/8" of dwell time in front of it.

              I have another one with a similar set-up, a Satern 18" double fluted with MLGS, .094" gas port, that I'm having a local smith cut and re-thread with concentric threads in 5/8x24. The threads were off the bore axis on it, with no relief cut for muzzle devices that don't use crush washers. It will be a 17.5" when it's done.

                    This kit is being offered to help a new Grendel owner get into the cartridge. Take your AR15 into new territory.

                    These barrel/bolt combos go for $299 when in stock.
                    Feed ramp blend and polish is a $20 value.
                    Cerakote is $50 value.
                    Hornady New Dimension Die Set + Shell Holder is $40 value
                    6.5 Grendel Reloading Handbooks Volume I & II are $40 value
                    2 mags are ~$30 value
                    AR15 Build Box is $20

                    If you were to source the parts individually, you would have to pay separate shipping over a few orders. This is a great entry kit at a great price. I'll have to pull it before Black Friday because I won't be able to do the Cerakote over the holidays.

                      This really is a bargain guys, If I was in the market for the 18" -this would be mine.

                      Plus you get all the best advice -free- from all of us on this forum. It's a deal, that keeps on giving. Plus, how many are constantly asking for 6.5 Grrr stuff that's not readily available anymore- here or there?

                      How many are availiable is the next Q.? Cerakote on it already.... wow, I may change my rifle up.

                        Removed Cerakote option, since it isn't going to happen for a while. The package still is available as listed.
