    New comer ferst 6.5grendel builder

    Hi out there looking forward to your wisdom and tips in this build. I have already got a lot of my parts and I will give a list of them . First my barrel is a 20" 5R 1-8 twist 8flute 920 Hbar Bartlein by PF with supper match carrier,bolt and low profile gas block. I have about three more weeks to wait for it.
    Seekins billet upper and lower.
    Vltor buffer tube.
    Ares armor buffer spring.
    Spikes ST-T2 buffer.
    Geissele SSA trigger.
    KNS trigger pins.
    Battle Arms safety selector.
    ATI grip.
    What I need help with is a good sturdy fore arm ,butt stock and bipod.

        Seekins, SLR Rifleworks great products at a fair price. Love your parts list so far, are you going to lap the upper? Seems most of use have/are doing this. Great easy way to make sure your upper is square.

          A billet Seekins upper will not need to be lapped.

                  Hope you are right. If nothing needs done then nothing will be done. This is my most expensive and my first Grendel build. Just want to be safe. Thinks for all and any advice.

                    If it does need lapped its a 5-10 min procedure and will only benefit you. I'm of the school that what's the harm to check since its so easy to do. Again looking forward to your final build

                      I used a Wilson Combat trim rail on mine and I really like it. You would need to use one of their gas blocks with it but they make adj and non-adj blocks that come with gas tubes installed. Here is a thread about what I did with my Trim Rail. http://www.65grendel.com/forum/showt...ail-Barrel-Nut.

                        What do you think of the Wilson slim rail?

                            Make sure you post pics. If you don't like I will take it off you for a small disposal fee. Just kidding.
