I finally got everything tuned like I like it on my grendel. I went through all of the accurizing steps. Bedded the barrel to the receiver. I actually put a shim in as well so it isn't just loctite. I lapped the face of the receiver. I've shimmed the upper and lower receivers to keep them completely tight. Krieger 20" with a suppressor.
I installed a 20moa base and a tubb's level a few days ago. I took it out and shot it today. Adjusted the gas block till it worked well without too much soot on my brass and shot some groups.
Group 1,2,3 were sighting in groups. On group 3,4,5 I was really trying for a good groups. 4 and 5 were to check if my scope and bubble were level. The flyer in group 5 was my second shot of the group, and the scope was canted to the left. I never had any idea that scope level could change a group so much. Scope tracks well. 16moa=16.75"
This was all with factory hornady 123 sst. I have great hopes for this rifle.
The other groups were some 308 loads I had. Just dumping the bullets so I could use the brass for my usual load.
Let me know what you guys think.
